I have one, inherited from mak.
"NEVER cut fabric on Tuesday and Wednesday, avoid Friday and always cut the fabric on Monday and Thursday"
She says:
Tuesday and Wednesday: you might make mistakes during the cutting process which tend to destroy the fabric/the fitting of the garment or you make a lot of mistakes during the sewing phase which involve A LOT of unpicking or rrrripping....
Friday: since it is a blessing day, the cut fabric would remain cut fabric...
Monday and Thursday: none of the above, or in another word; SUCCESS!!!!!
:: first baju kurung in 2011, cut the fabric on Monday, sewn during CNY
:: first attempt of jahitan mata lalat; a malay variation of bullion embroidery on baju kurung neckline.
A bit wonky... but I like it.
:: second baju kurung, cut on Tuesday (Maulidur Rasul) and completed last night.
:: during sewing process, found that each of body panel was short of 3 cm, ahem....
:: WIP: a much better jahitan mata lalat
p.s. both baju kurung have pockets
