Salwar Kameez Measurement Chart Introduction Before Cutting Sewing

The first very important part of sewing is  Cutting, and Taking Measurements... To Achieve the perfect fit, size, length, of your clothing you have to be very good at taking measurements and cutting the clothes correctly.. I'm not saying this is hard, because if I could do it, You sure can.. And always remember Practice Makes Perfect..

 

You should take extra effort in checking out the fabric firsts. Check to see how many yards the fabric is. Normally a Salwar Kameez can be made from 3 1/2 yards of fabric or more.. It depends on your size.. check to see what the wrong and correct, Front and back side of the fabric is.. Check to see if there are any torn parts or holes in your fabric.. I have made a lot of clothes for customers, and I have found so many fabrics that have little tiny holes through out the fabrics.. SO be careful, and

study

the fabric before you sew...
Next If you have a pattern that's fine, I will be posting real quick and easy tutorials to show you how to cut with a pattern, but if you don't have a pattern and you need to take measurement's: "Then you have to slow down and take your time"  I have provide a measurement guide to explain the body parts you have to measure or if your looking at a pattern and measuring it to make a similar one, then this applies to that as well..

When you have taken the measurements and are ready cut make sure you leave upto 1- 1 1/2 inch of seam allowance (Seam allowance is the area between the edge, and the stitching line on two pieces of material being stitched together).
Always make sure you have a good:
1. Handy sharp Scissor
2.A ruler
3.A pen or chalk for marking
4.A hard flat surface to cut your clothing on
