I have already shared a post on how to stitch Magyar sleeves and in this post I am going to share a tutorial of stitching a kameez with Magyar sleeves. Construction 0 to 1 – length of the kameez 0 to 2 – 1/6 chest + 3"" 2 to 3 – 1/4 chest + 1" or 1 ¼ " or 1 ½” 0 to 4 – half shoulder 4 to 5 - sleeve length 0 to 6 – 1/6 round neck + 1/2” 0 to 7 - Back Neck depth (standard = 3”) 6 to 8 - Front Neck depth (standard = 6”) 0 to 9 – Waist length 9 to 10 - ¼ waist + 1” or 1 ¼” or 1 ½” 1 to 13 – 9 to 10 measurement + 4” Method Join 3 to 5 through a curve The opening of a kameez can be taken at 5" or 7" below the 10 measurement. For stitching a kameez with Magyar sleeves, first measure and note down the body measurements. Then take the cloth, open it in the reverse such that the two selve dges of the cloth are on top of each other. Then fold again such that the two ends are on top of each other. Mark the measurements directly on the cloth using the construction given above (Or first make a paper draft). Then join all the lines and curves. Mark "a" 1" from 13 measurement and draw a curve connecting 1, 12 and 13 as shown. Then leaving 1” extra cloth along the sides, sleeves and bottom of the dress and ½” extra cloth along the neck, cut the cloth. Stitching has to be done on the marked lines and curves. Begin stitching by first finishing the neck. Refer FINISHING THE NECK to get details on how it is done. You can also stitch a back opening as shown below and stitch a button. Short or long Magyar sleeves can be stitched. Once the neck is ready, double fold and stitch the sleeve ends. Then start stitching from the sleeve ends and along the sides of the kameez till you reach the slit (opening). Check out STITCHING THE SIDES for a more detailed explanation. Finally finish the bottom end by double folding the extra cloth and stitching. Your kameez with Magyar sleeves is now ready. Turn the dress to the reverse and over lock the cloth to prevent threads from coming out. I have tried to explain the method as clearly as possible but it is advisable to use your discretion while stitching this dress. For more tutorials visit the dress designs page.

Please Read Before Purchasing! **This listing is for the PDF Long Skirt Pattern Instructions Only, not for the finished item. ** PDF file can be downloaded by you immediately after purchased, to be Printed Out. *Nothing to be shipped to you. * ALSO, NO pattern pieces to cut out. Only clearly written instructions to print and follow, with lots of pictures! This is NOT a "circular skirt." Please contact me before purchasing if you have any questions! PLEASE READ ON... Now you can sew your own Ladies size Long Costume Skirt with this easy to follow PDF sewing pattern. **No pattern pieces to print out**; only clearly written Instructions to Print, that are fully detailed with Lots of step-by-step Photos to follow along with. This design uses one long piece of fabric yardage. All you need is a sewing machine, a printer, and just a little experience. Great pattern for a beginner! ** This pattern is for a "one-size-fits-most" type ladies costume skirt with a drawstring waist. ** This type of waist has a casing for the drawstring instead of a waistband, so it looks best to wear a belt, sash or bodice over the gathering. If you're not familiar with this type of skirt, please read along. This is a common feature in "costume skirts" making them very versatile for most sizes, but may need to be made smaller for an x-small size person. It measures approximately 143" around the waist, and the drawstring gathers up the excess fabric to fit most sizes. I've been sewing and selling skirts made with this pattern for over 10 years, and selling on Etsy since 2008 in my costume shop; Stitch in Time Designs. I've made hundreds of them, it's a great pattern! Use this pattern with Calico Print Cotton Fabric to make a Ladies Pioneer Costume Long Skirt, or with Solid Color Fabric for a Ren-Faire Long Skirt. See my PDF Pattern for a Long Sash to compliment this Skirt Pattern: https://www.etsy.com/listing/521927470/sewing-instructions-for-costume-sash-pdf This type of long skirt can be worn for Pioneer, Frontier, Colonial, Victorian, Renaissance Faire or Civil War Costume Events. And, it's a great addition to your wardrobe for a Theater Production, School Play or Period Reenactment Event! Note: Third picture shows a complete costume with blouse and sash. This is to illustrate how the completed skirt will look in costume. *The blouse and sash are NOT included in the pattern.* Also, Skirt is pictured with a crinoline hoop slip under it to show some fullness; but hoop is sized down quite a bit for less fullness. This pattern is written in standard American (US) terms, in English language, with step-by-step instruction and plenty of pictures to successfully complete the garment. Pattern is in PDF format, and can be downloaded immediately after purchase. This is not a finished garment. You will not receive anything in the mail. But, you can contact me with any questions. *Note -You will probably need Adobe Acrobat Reader on your computer to access this file after downloading it.
