Pl refer my earlier reply to Sarah's comments. It will give you an idea of the stitching procedure. The patiala salwaar requires more cloth than ordinary salwaars, mainly due to the layers of cloth buried under the pletes. This is what gives the patiala salwaar it's unique and rich feel and look. The cloth required for a full size patiala salwaar is 3.5 meters. Series on patiala salwaars coming up! Best Wishes, Jasnav Hi Rasna!

The rectangular portion is of the patiala salwaar is of the same size as of a normal salwaar. If the length is 38 inches, then a seperate 9 inch piece is needed for the belt ie; the belt should be 9 inches by 52 inches. Take a double square piece of 32 inches, fold it and make a right triangle. Cut one side of 7 inches on the edge of the hypotenuse and the horizontal side to make the aasan. Stich the vertical side of the triangular piece with the side of the rectangular piece. Where you join the salwaar and the belt, less than half portion should be joined with pletes. Pl keep checking out this blog - I will be starting a full series on patiala salwaar kameez shortly. Best Wishes, Jasnav Hi Sarah!

What am I left with but a solid or print hemmed dupphatta? Thank you for this article! I have much trim and lace from making Diwali and Holi idol dresses. Some of the trim has swastik red and gold, green, black, and many colors. With your help, I will soon have a new collection of cotton and georgette saris! I really need them because my diet of indian food caused me to lose weight. I love to wear jeans with tank top and sari. The top is longer than choli, but works very nicely. I am an American but many people ask me when I went or will go to India, when I am wearing a sari. Thanks again. Anjali Recently I was taught the mantra, “Four yards make sari.”
