A close look at the hand-embroidery patterns and finishing details that I build into every custom garment.

This image shows a variety of unstitched fabric pieces with intricate in-house embroidery. You can see different motifs like the 'paan' and diamond shapes, and various color combinations, all ready to be stitched into a custom garment.

About Additional Work

Every motif you see here—from the traditional 'paan' shapes to intricate dori patterns—is done in-house. I do not use ready-made patches because they can stiffen the fabric and limit your movement. Instead, I map and stitch the design directly onto your fabric, ensuring the embroidery follows the natural drape of your Saya or Kurta without puckering or pulling at the seams.

Quality in tailoring isn't just about the fabric; it's about how the embroidery interacts with that fabric. Whether I am using zardosi wire for a wedding sherwani or simple dori work for a daily Saya, the technique matters. My workshop prioritizes the structural integrity of your outfit.

Why In-House Embroidery Matters

When you see these designs, notice the density of the thread. I ensure the tension is balanced so the material doesn't bunch up. If you choose a delicate cotton or a heavier sherwani fabric, I adjust the backing and the stitch type accordingly. This attention to detail is why my clients, from Mumbai to Dubai, trust me with their ceremonial wear.

How to Get a Custom Design

You don't have to choose from a catalog. If you have a specific pattern, a photo from a magazine, or even a design you’ve seen at a Ziyafat or wedding, share it with me. I can replicate motifs, match colors to a bride's outfit, or modify a design to better suit your personal style.

Durability and Care

I use high-quality threads that hold their color even after multiple washes. Because I finish every piece with makkhi stitching and proper lining, your embroidery won't fray or come loose at the edges. If you are sending me fabric for transformation—like turning an old shawl into a koti—I first assess the fabric strength to ensure it can support the embroidery work. You get a garment that looks new, fits well, and respects the tradition behind it.

I am Abdulqadir from Avon Tailoring. For me, tailoring is a zimmedari (responsibility) rather than just a job, and I treat every piece of cloth with the same level of care. If you have a specific design idea in mind, send it over and let's work on it together.
