Sewing a Yoke Waistband

A yoke facing gives such a smooth finish to the top of a flared skirt. It’s a little confusing when you’re sewing the yoke to the skirt for the first time, but this video will walk you through it step by step. We’ll show you how to apply a yoke facing to a skirt from start to finish. You’ll learn how to properly interface one set of yoke pieces, how to assemble the yoke sets, and how to attaching both yokes to the skirt waistline. A yoke facing gives your skirt a fitted finish at the waist, and the yoke itself sits flat while hugging your curves.
