I found this really great skirt but the ruffles break apart in the cloth room. It started off as conforming but I converted it to dynamic.

In another thread I was told that the ruffles aren't attached.  I tried editing the soft constraint group on the top edge of the ruffles, butI can't get all of the edge or even all of the ruffles, and what I can edit, didn't make a difference.

So I decided to try and fix the problem in a modeling program, only I don't know how to model,  lol

I downloaded Wings3D and the interface seems pretty user friendly. I googled and found some video tutorials that have walked me through the interface and I've been working along.

However, I still don't know how to go about fixing the dress. Though I've gotten pretty good at turning a square into a semi rounded soccer ball ;)

Are there any tutorials that can help me get started with what I need to do to weld/stitch/glue the ruffles so that they don't break apart during a simulaton?
