You’ve given me the confidence to make what I’ve wanted for years! So easy to follow! What type of fabric do you recommend?

[@MadeByDeola]

Cotton is always a good idea. Easy to sew with 😊

[@josephineacland5907]

This is EXACTLY what I've been looking for! You made it so simple to follow and I loved that you showed how to sew the bias neckline. Can't wait to make one of my own!

[@qadash9641]

Thank you! I’ve been searching everywhere for something like this! Do you think this pattern can be used for men and if so, is 2 yards enough or should I double?

[@MadeByDeola]

If you're not doing full length, I think 2 should be enough but just to be safe yards

[@qadash9641]

@@MadeByDeola I would like to do full length. I’m not sure how tall you are but the person I’d like to make is for is 5’9 and a little over 200lbs

[@MadeByDeola]

3 yards will be enough as I only used 2 yards and I'm 5'8 tall

[@qadash9641]

@@MadeByDeola thank you so much 😊

[@HabitatYakII]

What kinds of fabric would you suggest for kaftans? I'm super into linen right now but idk if that would work.

[@MadeByDeola]

Any fabric really, it just depends on the feel and look you're going for. I used cotton for this

[@carpenc1]

Great tutorial! Thank you so much!!

[@terrieannschmearer]

Your Kaftan is beautiful. I am a larger (plus size woman). Should I get more material or is this kind of a one size fits all pattern?

[@MadeByDeola]

I'm tempted to say it's a one size fits all but I'd recommend to use your measurements to be on the safe side ☺️

[@terrieannschmearer]

@@MadeByDeola Thank you.

[@mirtill1900]

I really like the video. What is the name of the fabric that is thin, soft and light, please?

[@MadeByDeola]

Hello Marta, thank you. this is a cotton fabric I found in a local market.

[@zaratraboun8290]

Perfect!

[@MadeByDeola]

Thank you 💕

Thank you. Can you please make french subtitle.

[@MadeByDeola]

Okay, 👍🏾

[@Ravencall]

Love this! Thanks for the video. My son in law wants one. I have to find the perfect fabric- not too thin, not too bulky or stiff.

[@MadeByDeola]

You're welcome 😊 hope you find the right fabric

[@mercynwofia8888]

Nice one. Pls how many yards did you use

[@MadeByDeola]

Hi, I used around 3 yards

[@wania4900]

Pls can you show how you stitched from the sides

[@MadeByDeola]

Just pin the sides together and sew,... I'm not sure if this answers your question

[@wania4900]

@@MadeByDeola my cloth gets collected at the side in the curve it's not neat

[@MadeByDeola]

I see. In that case, what you can do is mark your sewing allowance onto the fabric around that area and use that as your guide....it should not pull together. And snip around the curve area once finished

[@wania4900]

@@MadeByDeola tysm💕 I'll try

[@halimomohamed5462]

How many yard?

[@MadeByDeola]

2 yards

[@fuseinaseidu9712]
