Can a gathering pro do a sewalong for us poor souls?

Those who have a fool-proof, beautiful-looking, easy and fast method - or I'll just take beautiful looking method of gathering, I would LOVE a sew along. Especially on knits. It seems I end up stretching out the bodice when I do it. I just do little pintucks that I eyeball and tack with needles but it takes FOREVER!

I don't think I'm an expert, but I would do a sew along sometime this month when I do a dress, which I'm sure will happen.
