Sewing Tips

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

I sew my own churidars. but explaining this thro a mail is difficult. Please mail me your address and details the length of the churidhar of your size. I shall see what I can do. Okay?

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.

I would like to know how to make the cutting of regular Churidar? Geetha

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.

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.

Hi friends ,


I would like to know which sewing machine( Brother ) is good to begin with . But I would prefer it with some embroidery stitches too, to try out later . It woudl be helpful if someone can give me the model number . I'm really confused about which one would be really useful for me .

Thanks

Hello...

Hope you are doing good...The links on sewing are all very helpful, but can you also please let me know if there is any general churidhar (and saree blouse) stitching procedure (with the measurement formulas), that i can refer to (instead using an already stitched churidar for cutting)? i had a tailoring notebook that i lost, and am now madly in search for these details.....It would be great if you can help!!!

Thank you!
