So I’ve made multiple circle skirts by hand but now the first with my sewing machine. If you do it by hand you can cheat a little bit with the machine I just can’t get it right.
This is a full circle skirt. If I do not stretch the fabric when guiding it along the machine, it will ‘grab’ more fabric and make ruffles. If I do stretch it, it also makes ruffles. I used a regular running stitch, maybe that is the issue?
Attached a few photos to show the issue. The beginning went great as i just stitched straight, no ruffles. But at some point there is fabric left ‘over’. The hem is around 1 cm high.
Any tips how to get this right? Much appreciated!
