Today’s task will finish the shirt! If you’ve been sewing along, you have 5 days under your belt with a belly shirt to show for it! Let’s finish that shirt with a skirt! Follow steps 8-12 to finish the skirt or use one of the NEW add-on skirts with a circle version, circle dress version, or gathered dress version! Check out the release post here!
And you’re done…CONGRATULATIONS!

On step 12, the pattern is missing the end of a sentence – “OPTIONAL: Use elastic thread for this seam to give your shirt”
I was hoping for some discussion of this as part of the sew along. Where do I buy it? Is it both the bobbin and top thread? Is this if I am using a straight stitch on a regular sewing machine? Does this not apply if I am sewing the skirt to the top with a serger? Thanks in advance for any clarification you can give!
I have the same questions as Heather.. Is it similar to a shirring technique? Does the elastic work with the stretch stitch on my sewing machine?
