Cutting Tips & Care

Cutting & Stitching Tips

• 1
  Plan layout for full family before cutting

  If cutting for multiple family members from a single roll, lay out all pattern pieces on the fabric before making any cuts. Verify that the 38-inch cording work falls on the correct visible panels for each garment — jacket fronts, lehenga panels, kurta yoke. Mark cutting lines before scissoring.

• 2
  Handle crepe fabric carefully while cutting

  Crepe fabric has some natural stretch and can shift while cutting. Pin to a cutting mat or use pattern weights. Cut on a single layer for precision, especially for fitted jacket bodies and lehenga waistbands.

• 3
  Stitching around cording areas

  Avoid stitching directly through the thick cording lines — route seam lines around cording where possible. For seams that must cross cording, use a zipper foot or cording foot for cleaner results. At seam intersections with cord, backstitch carefully to prevent the cord from pulling at stress points.

• 4
  Needle and thread

  Use a universal needle (80/12 or 90/14) for plain crepe areas. Switch to a jeans/heavy needle (90/14 or 100/16) when stitching through layered cording areas. Match thread colour to the dominant fabric tone.

• 5
  Finish raw edges

  Poly viscose frays at cut edges. Serge or overlock all raw edges immediately after cutting. For a professional interior finish on jackets and indo-western garments, French seams or bound seams are recommended.

Care Instructions

• •
  Washing

  Hand wash cold with mild detergent, or machine wash on gentle cycle in a mesh laundry bag. Cold water preserves the cording work integrity over repeated washes. Dry clean recommended for stitched garments with heavy cording detail.

• •
  Drying

  Hang or lay flat in shade. Do not wring or twist — the cording can shift or deform when fabric is wrung wet. Smooth gently while damp and hang to dry in shape.

• •
  Ironing

  Iron on the reverse side on medium heat with a thick pressing cloth. Do not press directly on the cording surface — direct iron heat can flatten or distort the raised cord design permanently. Use a seam roller on cord areas instead of direct ironing.

• •
  Storage

  Fold loosely along the grain with the cording face outward to prevent flattening under pressure. Use a breathable garment bag for finished stitched garments. Store away from direct sunlight and moisture.

⚠ Never press directly on the cording surface — use reverse-side ironing with a thick pressing cloth. The cording work width is 38 inches within the 44-inch total fabric width — plan all cutting layouts within the 38-inch zone for visible garment panels. For full family co-ord sets, lay out all pieces before making any cuts.
