I am a very beginner sewer and my grandma was helping me sew a skirt when I visited but now I am totally lost.
I am on a step 11 and these are the instructions:
11. Pin WRONG side of upper skirt to RIGHT side of lower skirt, matching centers and RIGHT side seams, having raw edges even.
Bring LEFT side edges to INSIDE above clip.
Baste along seam line on upper and LEFT side edges of skirt sections together above clip.
To gather upper edge of skirt between notches nearest LEFT side edges, sticth along seam line and 1/4" (6mm) INSIDE seam line, using a long machine-stitch.
The main thing I need help with is the last part about gathering? Can you just explain what to do, please in a more understandable way?
THANK YOU!
