How to cut velvet drapes fabric?

1. Edge: A narrow and tight edge woven along the longitudinal edge of a fabric. Do not use it, but cut it off. It is often referred to as burr reduction.

2. Meridian texture: parallel to the edge of the fabric. When cutting the length of fabric, the horizontal head (cutting blade) that spans across the width of the fabric must be straight, which is very important.

3. Twill: It is a diagonal line made of rubber, with a warp and weft texture. To find the diagonal pattern, measure the same length on the hem and horizontal head, but. When measuring, first ensure that the horizontal head is at a right angle to the hem. Then use drawing powder and a meter ruler to mark the length of the measured dimension, and connect two points with a straight line to indicate a positive inclination angle.

4. Latitude texture: It forms a right angle with the edge of the fabric. That is to say, each piece of fabric has a different latitude and longitude direction. Pay attention to seeing clearly when cutting, otherwise the finished product will not have a drooping sensation.

5. When cutting fabric, gently place your left hand on the fabric to cut patterns or draw chalk on the left side: hold scissors in your right hand to prepare scissors, so that the patterns or draw chalk lines are on the right side of the scissors. If you are left-handed, please turn it upside down.

6. Cut the length of the fabric in the same direction. Some fabrics have very obvious design directions, such as the top edge and the actual edge printed on the fabric. For other fabrics, even flat fabrics must be carefully inspected because the fabric may have a gloss that affects its appearance, which produces different effects under different lighting conditions.
