Edit: Due to the populatiy of these tutorials (who would have guessed?) I've changed the original format of them to a nice, shinier model~! Hope you enjoy the new interface!
First deviation of 2012, yay! And, thankfully, the world hasn't exploded yet (THANKS Mayans), which is awesome. Anyway, I promised a whole lot of you to submit more tutorials, so there you go.
I made long bloomers before for my Sophie costume (Howl's Moving Castle) but I forgot to take progress pictures as I made them. So when I had the chance to make them again for Lillet (GrimGrimoire) I was happy to get enough photos to make a tutorial from it.
...I love bloomers...

The same applies to the lace, cause there's all this folding going on with the lace and it's hard to tell what's the inside and what's the outside of the fabric and what will be in and what will be out @.@;
These are common questions in my confusion of cosplay sewing v_v'
1. Sew the raw edge down a little way, so the good side (outside) has nothing but a sew line and a folded edge at the top, and the bad side has the folded edge sewn down.
2. Fold the edge over again (kind of like when you're rolling an omelette roll) and sew the edge of this roll down. Now the good side outside still has one sew line, but it's further down from the edge, and the bad side has a neat folded edge sewn down.
So, pretty much you make like a sausage roll and you slide the elastic through it. Did that make any more sense...?
@.@ I have issues figuring out how to do finished seams when sewing. I've ended up just doubling my zig-zag stitch like crazy ><
Also, I miss you ;_;
