Have you ever been in a situation where you want to design and stitch the best outfit for yourself, and suddenly you find that the cut piece is just not sufficient to fulfill, or the cut pattern pieces are just not lining up as expected! You might not best look the way you would intend the fabric to come out post stitching. This happens, because you are not aware of how much fabric you need to stitch. You might be the best stitcher in the town, but if you are unaware of the fabric required to make a particular Kurti, Dupatta, Palazzo, or Saree, then you will always end up with either short of fabric or excess of the same. It is highly recommendable to understand how much fabric you need for making the clothes before ordering.
It adds to it, it is always recommended for the buyer to get the measurement of the body correctly before purchasing the fabric. Fabric is always measured by yards or meters. One yard equals to 3feet or 0.91meters. Furthermore, it requires more yardage while making cloths with printed or patterned fabric since the prints need to be matched exactly during the stitch.
We recommend go-through the following table on the required fabric for making the articles. We also suggest you understand the fabric well, note the factors like pre-wash and press, and most importantly to cut with care.
