Video Tutorial

In this video, I demonstrate my favorite method of basting, notching, and sewing together challenging curves on my cosplay costume projects. In just a few simple steps, you can create crisp, smooth seams along just about any curved seam of your project.

For this cosplay project, I used our Make Your Own Gijinka Dress sewing pattern to create a dress inspired by Rowlet from Pokemon. You can find this pattern in our store through the link below!
