How to Sew a Flat Waistband on Skirt with Zipper
In this video you learn how to sew a flat waistband on the skirt or pants. This step-by-step technique helps you sew a waistband with button hole and zipper.
The flat classic waistband of this model a skirt is cut in the same way as waistband for the men's trousers (in two parts). One difference is between them: the men's trousers waistband have zipper at the front part. The ends of waistband a skirt are joined at the back part.
At beginning of making the waistband you need cut the strip of fabric. Its length must be equal the full measure of a waist + 8 cm (the 8 cm includes 1 cm each end seam allowance + 6 cm overlap). Strip width should be 10 cm (4 cm x 2 + 2 cm - seam allowances).
Note: wrong side a waistband must be duplicated with fusible adhesive fabric.

So professional. I'm a beginner afflicted with perfectionism, which is frustrating because despite much patience, I just don't have the experience to know the tricks. This is the perfect video for me and it's saved in my playlist so I can find it when I'm ready for this step. First, I must install my very first zipper. Thank God for KZread. I wish I had taken up sewing before losing my very skilled mom. ❤️

Look for the Threads video by Kenneth D King for installation of invisible zippers. Takes a little longer but the results are worth it.
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 It’s that basting stitch before that I’ve been missing. So worth the effort!
Your tutorials are so good and I love that you don’t feel the need to narrate over the whole thing - thank you, really

Neat work and great tutorial.
I bought a sewing pattern without images / only text for instruction and as a beginner, I was so confused by the belt part being separated from the zipper and connected with a button. I didn't understand what I was supposed to do but this video solved all my problems. Thank you so much for this amazing video tutorial! I'm excited to finish my skirt now :)

Thank you! How do you determine how far from the raw edge to sew the longer side (where you used chalk)? I’m having issues that when I turn out the waist band that side is shorter than the other side.

There are no exact answers on how to do this or that. Everything needs to be learned. To minimize discrepancies, sweep all seams with a thread.

I came to know how to sew a Flat Waistband on a Zipper Skirt. thank you very much for sharing your knowledge
Do you add the waist band at the end when you already sew the skirt together or do you add it before closing the sides of your skirt
Are we supposed to just measure around her waist and add a few inches in the use that

My DD's new school skirt is too big in the waist but just fine in length, she's tall for her age. I put some elastic inside the waistband but not sure the best way to secure it. Have you done a video on this?

No, not necessarily. But there are also such curvy the waist band.
This is a stupid question, but why do some garments have overlap on the waistband and others do not? Is there a rule? What are the pros and cons?

If a waistband has a button then the waistband has overlap.

To prevent the fabric from shifting while sewing on a sewing machine
Great visuals. The music kind of distracted me so I turned off the sound.
I assume this is for people who already have a better knowledge of sewing than me because I'm a beginner and have no idea what is going on, I've made some skirts with elastic waistbands and thought I'd try a zipper, need some narration I guess because I'm lost.
tbh if she can explain a little bit and do it a little bit slower will be perfect. It may not super helpful for beginners.
