Dear sabarimathi,
i am very glad to see your post and sincere comments on my work.Actually i hardly get time to spend with my hobbies bcoz i have a naughty daughter of 1 year old.she wants me to sit with her everytime.if i start the machine,she comes and holds the wheel .so nowadays i am not getting time to sew.but i used to search these forums and got your drafting pattern.actually, i have not gone for a sewing class.but my mother and her sisters used to stitch.i got some ideas from them.before a few years, i gone for a short term course of salwar and blouse stitching.but that teacher was not a professional tailor,and was not familiar with recent fashion trends.so my knowledge was incomplete.but i used to stitch salwars .i dont know to take the measurements,for that, i am using my old dresses.
after seeing your draft, i got a rough idea only.thought about trying one.fortunately, it came good.so...thank u sooooo much for sharing it.i am thinking to go for a stitching course here in bangalore.somebody says that there is a design school here.but not now...after afew days.i saw another pattern of anarkali in which the lower part comes like joining strips....do u know the draft of it?one more question....masakkali means short anarkali tops..isn't it?
anyway....thank u once again.which state u belongs to?
luv
