Kurti Pattern/Design-5

In this post I am going to show you this beautiful neck design with fabric stripes and buttons. This kurti is made up with 2 shades of fabric. On the front side, off white color fabric of bottom has been used in half, designing has been done by placing stripes in alternate color and on the edge buttons are hand stitched.

Step by step procedure is as follows:
1.Prepare the fabric of front pannel by adding two colors, prepare boat neck, on the bottom of front panel, arrange borders : black on off white color, and off white on black color part.

2. Take 1" wide and 9 inches long strip, double fold it width wise and make a stitch line, so that raw edges are secured inside.

3. Pin them from center, taking equal distance on both sides and stitch them, taking alternate colors.
on the both sides hand stitch fabric buttons.

4. On the sleeves attach fabric buttons also.

In this way our designer kurti is ready.
On the back side  and sleeves single color fabric is used.
