may i suggest finishing the sleeve edges before sewing side seam. hemming the bottom is not really necessary if you: stitch across (use chalk or frixion pen [fades away with heat] to draw a straight line to follow) in a small zig zag; then pull or pick out horizontal threads, cut the ones that do not come out easily. You may also add lace over “hem” stitching line at this point if you like. a frayed edge topped with lace makes a nice edge.
Wow mam I m from India , you are very clear on teaching from start to end , especially for beginners it is very clear and easily understandable thank u so much for this i impressed.....
A for effort and idea but C for execution. Even sewing by hand there is no reason not to hem all edges. Unless using a material that doesnt fray like a tee or jersey knit and the edges roll when cut. If you want a slimmer look and open on side you can hem edges entirely first then stitch on top with wrong sides together. Ive made many simple Halloween costumes this way with folded material and using sheets. You have the person lay down on folded fabric. Hold arms out like a T and draw in angel sleeves, vampire wings, anything. But it has to be much looser as sleeves not set in. That applique is also not meant to be hanging out there with raw edges. It’s made to zig zag close around, called satin stitch. But you must Stabilize under with tracing paper or similar. I use engineering tracing paper. Cheaper than fabric stores. Sew around edges of applique. Then trim edges off applique carefully or use applique scissors. You can also trim the material under on parts you want see through. There is no glue in sewing either. Seriously ive used that all too. If you want it soft it won’t be, if you want it washable, it won’t be. Even if this was your very first project and you are hand sewing just take your time and take very tiny stitches. Look up French rolled hem. Very easy and fast by hand. You are making a little tube, a rolled hem. I still use it as practically the only thing I had do for very fine fabrics that you cannot machine sew. Ive been sewing since age 10. I’m 64 now. This is the differences in looking home made. And sorry she is not using sewing terms. Buy a book printed in the 60s or watch tutorials by those sewing for years for detail techniques. Like how to hem, how to do a binding. How to measure yourself. Note the material is flat if you are not flat as in model skinny you need more inches in width than elbow to elbow if you need to accommodate a bust, booty or tummy. Then you can do the design thing. As noted I said A for effort.
Everybody please say it with me: CALF-TON like a ton of calf (for grammar police calves Lol but that defies my pronunciation purpose) so calf-ton. Not calf-tan! 🙄😖Trust me I'm middle eastern I know how it's supposed to be said. Also if you can find 2 large identical scarves or beach covers that you like you can use them and save yourself the trip to fabric store. So instead of having a fold on top you'll have a seam. No biggy. Let's say it again CALF-TON. 😊👏
CORRECTION..The real name is a Gandora it's a Moroccan long very casual comfortable dress or shirts woman and man wear it . Some other African country do wear it.
Stealing from whom? That is really a foolish comment, no body has the monopoly on making an out fit. People have been making kaftan for years, I never knew that it was only for certain people to make or wear.
Hello we are from India.. we make digital print kaftans and export them all over world...We do customisation also.... See this Instagram post by @indian_shop4u instagram.com/p/B0EaLBNlufE/? .... email : sales.satyamfashion@gmail.com
FYI, a huge range of "neckline appliques" are available at Amazon for, in most cases, less than $15 each. also, there are much better caftan making videos here on youtube
If you're gonna take a part of a culture at least give it recognition.... This is a Moroccan traditional dress not a "come back from the real housewives".
How do you hem the sleeves and the neckline? You can't leave it looking all raggedly like that??!! I just made this and now I don't know what to do with the necklaine b/c the edges are ragged.

People can be really ignorant, if you don't want nth applique who said you have to but it. Go make it yourself then, that would have been hand done and people's labour cost something.
Holy hell the comments about stealing this from someone else. This type of dress has been around far longer than anyone knows, used for all different types of things. It belongs to no one and everyone. It's beautiful and I'll make whatever I want.

Rosalind Hamilton you would need somewhere between 3 1/2 and four, depending on your height. Measure from your shoulder to the floor and double that, then add maybe four inches for seam allowances and hem.
I couldn't even watch this. Here we go again... We can't have nothing. Always trying to take our creations. We are BEAUTIFUL and UNIQUE individuals with AWESOME ideas!!!
$50??? I pay my Tunisian kaftans only TND 25 - this makes +/- 8 euros per kaftan... No need to make them myself; I can buy them directly from the bled. And ALL the appliques are sewn piece by piece and not in a whole big piece because I do believe that each design refers to a tribe - for example the Djerbian applique will never look like the one of Gabes or Tunis or whatever other town, therefore tribe. Same applies to Morroccan kaftans I believe.
Holly Day I have many from tunisia too . Been to Morocco but tunisian one I find more beautiful.. and yes I buy for 13 td to 25td .. I wear my all summer .. love them .. 💗
good for home, but not for an event, we have an expert eye when it comes to caftan, cheap materal and brodery can be easly noticed, .but, I like it, :)
For those who can't or don't want to sew the hem and sleeves, use stitch witch. All you do is iron the hem and it stays forever.
👏👏

I was going to say the same thing... I got a really nice one in Morocco, while visiting my in-laws, in 2016.
The best and easy video on how to make these.
I like this tutorial. Good work. Good teaching. So educative. Keep it up.
Thank you for a lovely tutorial 😍
Stealing from whom? That is really a foolish comment, no body has the monopoly on making an out fit. People have been making kaftan for years, I never knew that it was only for certain people to make or wear.
This is such a concise tutorial, well done
this is Moroccan traditional
I need to say this. Going over pins are not good for your sewing machine.

The caftan is from morocco is expansive because it is difficult to make it
The cheapest caftan in Morocco you can find 200 dollars

When measuring side to side realize your 3D and also need seams

Cut of 1 cm, at the sides, of the button otherwise it will look cheap.
Where do ou find the application jewels
Paula Richards try hobby lobby, Michaels, Joann fabrics
I love Hobby Lobby and they all have websites and will ship to you quickly.
How many yards would I nee?. If I use a fabric with a boarder how much more fabric would I need?
Rosalind Hamilton you would need somewhere between 3 1/2 and four, depending on your height. Measure from your shoulder to the floor and double that, then add maybe four inches for seam allowances and hem.
how many yards material?
Kaftan is Morocco culture

Que lidas peças, onde posso comprar, beijos

You can't shorthand more than 12 century of moranccan kaftan culture in one dress, but other wise thank you for trying

Didn't finish the neckline and seams. It's going to ravel
I wanna make this and wear it to my brothers wedding. Just from a fancier fabric and a belt.
This Somali ethnic clothes what we call Dirac or baati,
No. Its not. Somali diraac is more floffier and loose than the moroccan Kaften. This is the moroccan kaftan.
+Jackline O it's just short but somali Dirac long it's ethnic somali it's not Moroccan , because somali dress 3 thin long scarf with skirt
+Jackline O look when party lady's what they wear that is somali ethnic
Ramya Raas that is a MOROCCAN clothes. Caftan is Moroccan
Jackline O no that's just a dress

That white fabric used is way too stiff and puffy needs a drapier fabric! But cute idea.
Jennifer Anniston?
Dear god...the way you say "kaftan" makes my hair stand...😖
Súper
I'd like to see her try and sell that for $20. Retail price is not for this terrible garment, it would probably be for the ones in Dubai.
I love dis
❤️❤️❤️
Caftan 🇲🇦🇲🇦
That is certainly not a Kaftan ...just a casual dress for us
Copying Muslim kaftan
Hot glue
please stop saying kaftan
good for home, but not for an event, we have an expert eye when it comes to caftan, cheap materal and brodery can be easly noticed, .but, I like it, :)
What a crappy job. How did she get on TV?
That’s soo crazy they think for a outfit cost that much! Money hungry companies
Um show
