Sewing on a Deadline

Asalam Alaikum,

Tariq had to go to Abu Dhabi for work, and so his sisters and brother's wife asked for some new clothes as summer is here and they need something light. We went to the market and picked out two suits for each, and gave one of each to the tailor and I offered to sew one of each. Since he was leaving rather quickly I had a short deadline and completed three suits in 2.5 days. It is a personal best for me as it usually takes one day and a little bit to complete one suit.

So here they are-

Three suits


First suit, simple design with an A-line shape and piping on the neck, the center line of the sleeves and the outside leg of the trousers.


Close up of neck, the shirt has a printed design running down the center, and on both of the long sides of the dupatta.


Second suit, regular kameez(not A-line), with an open work design on each sleeve and two on the bottom of the front of the shirt, and a piping design at the neck.

Neck design, simple loops of piping.


Third suit- A-line kameez with beaded bow design on neck and each sleeve, the trousers have a contrasting band at the foot.
