Trimming the Bottoms of a Custom Bikini

"JENNIFER CROW: Hi. This is Jennifer and I'm the owner of wedgiewear.com, and we're here with Expert Village. Now, what you want to do is your band needs to connect the whole way around, all the way from your starting point and then you need to end up all the way back at your starting point. So again, we just took the piece of fabric. Again, you can do this with a different fabric and you're just going to wind it up. The important part before you start with the band actually is--since now that we have all these in the cut the way that we want them, we need these sides to actually match up to this. Now here, it's pretty close. It has a little bit extra which is fine if it's just that much; anymore, I would go ahead and snip off. And then we're going to go ahead and check off the other end then check here. Okay, now see here we go. We have a lot more material on this part. So in order to fix that, all we would just need to do is again lay out your pattern or lay out your fabric. And you can maybe just connect it up to this one up here to kinda see how much you need to get off. And right here, it's actually just the very beginning of it, so it's very easy to fix. So you just take your scissors and just go ahead and start snipping that off. Okay? It's pretty much only right there. Okay, so that's even. That's pretty much even as well. So what we can do now is just go ahead and start sewing on the band. Again, your starting point needs to be your ending point."
