HOW TO STITCH SARI BLOUSE

Learn to stitch the indian sari blouse used for sari costume. The methodto stitch a blouse is very easy.

The pattern is useful in stitching a cut blouse.

Lets use a readymade measurement to stitch the blouse (refer abovediagram). I have used measurements in centimeter, You can do it withinch measurement.

* chest = 91 cm* full length = 38 cm* Across back = 35 cm* sleeve length = 25 cm

FRONT PART



* A - B = full length = 38 cm* A-C = arm hole = (chest/4)-4 = (91-4)/4 = 18.7 cm* C-D = chest loose = (chest/4)+2.5 = (91/4)+2.5 = 25.2 cm* A-I = front part = chest/3 = 91/3 = 30.3cm

* A-E = shoulder = AB/2 = 35/2 = 17.5 cm* A-F = Neck Breadth = (chest/12)+1.5 = 9 cm* A-H = Front Neck = chest/8 = 11.3 cm* K-B = patti part = full length-front part=7.7 cm

PATTI PART (K-B part in the above diagram)

* A-C = full length = 11 cm* A-B = patti width

SLEEVE PART

* A-B = sleeve length = (chest/4)+2.5* A-C = sleeve width = (chest/4)+2.5* E-D = (chest/4-4)

Now let's see how to stitch the sari blouse. Before going to stitch the realmaterial , we'll draw the stitching pattern. I have used chart paper todraw the stitching pattern. If u want to stitch a blouse of your size, take a



sample blouse you already have and take the measurements using inchtape. It is nessesary to draw stitching patterns for both front and backside .

BACK PART PATTERN

The curve on the right is the arm hole while the other curve is neck.

FRONT PART PATTERN

First draw a pattern same as the back side then from thetop measure 12 inch and draw a straight line. You can seea straight line drawn at a distance of 12 inch from theshoulder. The distance can vary from 12 to 13 inch based



on the breast size . A normal women can draw a line atdistance of 12" else 13".

Next measure 1/2 inch from the horizontal line and mark it.Likewise measure 1/2 inch above the horizontal line onboth the extremes. Now as shown in the above diagramdraw a neat curve along the points . I've drawn the curvein blue colour. Next step is to cut along the blue line likethe one below. The image below shows the front and theback part pattern together.

Front part is cut into 2 parts. In the first part we have tosew darts then attach the patti part(2nd part) to the frontpiece.



In the above image i've drawn the darts . Those are theplaces where you have to sew darts.Now let's see how tosew darts using the cloth. Then take the material to stitchblouse. Below is the material i have used. Fold the cloth tothe exact breadth size of the pattern once as shown in thefigure . Then mark the edges with marking chalk. Nextcarefully cut the edges without disturbing them. Make sure

the neck part is placed on the folded side.



After unfolding you can see both sides of the blouse.



Then 2 small darts have to stitched at the back partstraight to the shoulders.

Then the main three darts have to be stitched carefully in

the front part. Look at the stitching pattern diagram abovefor the three main darts. The dart stitched at the bottomshould be bigger that the 2 darts at the left and right sides.Darts at the back part and front part are stitched.

Next to the front part , the patti part has to be stitched. After stitching the three main dots , the front part has to bestitched to the patti part. The patti part should have theremaining length so that it equals the back part.

Now the patti part is stitched to the main part. See to thatboth back and front parts are of same length. Then makesure you fold around the bottom line.



Next the front parts have to be joined to the back part. Justdo that by stitching the shoulders correctly.

Next sleeve part is cut and attached to the arm. There are2 options to stitch sleeve, you can join the sides then stitchthe sleeve else you can stitch the sleeve and then join thesides. It depends on your comfort level. To cut the sleeveuse ur model blouse for size. Just fold the cloth once andplace the model sleeve on it, then draw the shape and cutit.



After the sleeve part is stitched, the neck crosspeice hasto be stitched and then hooks have to be stitched. Finally

we finish the complete blouse like this. Try and send your feedback.
