| Mistake | Poor Result | Better Fix | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Skipping the muslin mock-up | The pesak pulls at the armhole | Sew a test version in cheap cotton | | Using cheap getah (elastic) | Waistband rolls and twists | Use plush, wide elastic (1.5 inches) | | Ignoring grainline | Skirt hems slant diagonally | Always cut kain on the straight grain | | Over-ironing songket | Flattened, shiny fibers | Steam from a distance, never press directly |
