Question Sewing / Tailoring / Stitching : Tips & Tricks

Hi

This forum definetely serves as good platform for exchanging views, tips and information. I'm sure a lot of us would be pursuing sewing as a hobby.

It would be great if someone can give me tips on how to stitch a churidar at home (with belt, instead of the entire thing gatehring at the waist).

Regards
Rachna

dear rachna,

take a readymade chudidar that u might had purchased sometime or one that fits u well...keep it on the folded cloth of the same length that is two length front and back....now mark it and cut it....now the most important part is to cut the neck and sleeve..u need to have basic knowledge but still can mark and cut the neck be careful to seperate the front from the back before cutting the front after u have finished with the back...now keep the same sized material below the cut neck space and make a small sized front and back backing for the necks....this will be 2" all over ur front and back neck size on the outer side from the neck...now stitch the neck side on the right side of the fabric and turn over to the wrong side and hem the corners..attaach the sleeves and fold the sides before finishing the lower bottom with a double fold . now for the bottom also u need to cut the material by stretching the centre down in the bottom section to know the length reguired for ur seat area and then cut it.here u may have to attach cloth if u r big made otherwise it would be enough..take a separate piece for ur hip as it would be smaller than the seat area and cut it fold and make for the string area and connect the fabric of legs after finishing from the back give more gathering to the front side always attach pin to get the best effect so that u dont redo it again................u can contact if u still have doubts....regards..sundarikannan.

Default Saree-blouse

Can anyone tell me how to make saree blouses. I do have sewing skills. Send me a private message. If you can refer me to some website, that is also fine.
Thanks.

Default Try in kumudam.com

Hai,
there was a cutting instruction and paper cutting for saree blouse in January first issue of Kumudam Snehithi. Plese try that in www.kumudam.com. I may be mistaken about the correct issue. Please check that. Also you can take apart an old blouse and try cutting according to that. I learnt like that only.
