Cutting & Stitching of Cotton Jhabla with Dori for Newborn Baby 2021 | Step by Step Tutorial for Beginners 2021
Newborn Baby's first dress - A Cotton Jhabla!
It is a common practice that the
newborn wears Jhabla early few months after his/her birth. There is no
difference between baby girl Jhabla and baby boy Jhabla. Cotton material is
being used to make Jhabla because the baby's skin is very delicate. Most of the
people prefer to use White color for Jhabla.
In this blog, we will learn in detail
the Cutting and sewing/stitching of Jhabla.
Measurement (inches) :
Chest - 20 inches ( size may vary, for
example, we are taking 20 inches)
Material Required: Cotton
Cloth size: 1 meter approximately
Cutting Guidelines :
Fold the cloth in 4 layers for front
and back measuring (7 inches x 16 inches).
Front & Back side measurement:
0-1 = chest 1 / 4 x 3 = 5 x 3 = 15
0-2 = chest 1 / 4 - 0.5= 5 - .5 = 4.5
0-3 = chest 1 / 4 + 1.5 = 5 + 1.5
= 6.5
2-5 = 0-3
5-3 = 0-2
0-6 = chest 1 / 12 = 20 ÷ 12 = 1.6
0-7 = 1 inch (join 6-7 in neck shape)
0-8 = chest 1/6 = 3.3
0-8 = 2-4 (join 8-4)
8-9 = 0.5 inch (join 6-9)
9-5 = join in a armhole shape
Now cut on the marking (leaving 0.25
inches on top & 0.5 inches from the side for sewing allowance).
Unfold & Separate the two sides of
Jhabla ( one for front & one for back).
Take the backside of the Jhabla, &
cut 2 inches from the center of the neckline.
Front side :
Take the front piece and cut the deep
neckline for the front side of the Jhabla.
7-10 = 0.5 inch (give the shape of
neckline)
PIPING / DORI FOR THE NECKLINE & ARMHOLE :
Now we have to make 4 strips
1. To sew the edge of the neckline. (
Strip Measuring: whole round neck + 12 inches for Dori).
2. To sew the cut on the backside. (
Strip Measuring: 4 inches).
3. 2 strips for armholes (Measuring:
the size of the armholes).
Cut the strips diagonally measuring 1/2
inches each.
Cut to Straightened the ends of the
strips.
Join them together to make 4 strips of
the size mentioned earlier.
SEWING METHOD:
Sew the shoulders holding the front and backside (right side together).
Now attach the smaller strip on 2
inches cut (right side together) to the backside of the Jhabla. The sewing
allowance would be 0.2 inches.
Now fold the strip on the backside and
sew from the front side.
Now attach the long strip to the
neckline. (similarly, as smaller strip attached on backside).
Note:
start attaching from the backside, leaving 6 inches for the Dori.
Note:
while folding the strip to the backside, start folding from one end of the
Dori.
Now attach the armhole strips and fold
them towards the wrong side of the Jhabla as well.
DECORATE
THE ENDS OF DORI :
Cut 2 rectangular size cloth to attach
to the ends of the Dori. (1"× 2")
Place the Dori in the center of the
rectangle cloth.
Fold the rectangle.
Sew the rectangle along with the Dori.
Turn the rectangular cloth to the right
side.
Cut one corner of the rectangular cloth
in a curve shape.
Now fold Jhabla to the wrong side and
sew the sides of the Jhabla (0.5-inch sewing allowance).
Now sew the bottom of the Jhabla
towards the wrong side (sewing allowance would be 1 inch).
Now
our Cotton Jhabla with Dori for a Newborn baby is ready.
