Amabhulokhi ayisisekelo yiwona asetshenziswa kakhulu ngabasiki bephethini ukwenza iphethini entsha. Ungazivumelanisa nanoma yisiphi isitayela osithandayo. Qiniseka ukuthi wazi okuncane mayelana ukwakhiwa kwe-dart ngaphambi kokuzama, ngakho-ke uyazi amathuba ongawathola wokuwasebenzisa. Ungabashiya ngaphandle ngokuphelele uma ukwakheka kwakho kudinga okuthile okuxekethile noma kudwetshwe noma kubanjwe emzimbeni ngenye indlela.
Lapho ukhetha ukuthi iyiphi ibhulokhi oyisebenzisayo kubalulekile ukucabanga ngesitayela sendwangu yokugcina oyisebenzisayo. Ngokwesibonelo, uma wenza ithangi lejezi eliqinile phezulu, uzodinga ukusebenzisa 'i-close fit bodice block', kepha uzodinga ukusebenzisa 'i-close block bodice block yokugqoka ijezi'. Ukusebenzisa ibhulokhi evamile yokulinganisa eseduze kungasho ukuthi ithangi lakho phezulu belingeke lilingane kahle njengoba isibonelelo sokwelulwa kwendwangu yejezi singakakhishwa kule ndawo. Lokhu kuyefana nezimpahla zokubhukuda nezangaphansi. Ngenkathi amabhulokhi wezingubo zangaphandle enokukhululeka okungeziwe kuphethini, Izitayela eziseduze nezindwangu ezikhethekile zidinga ibhulokhi entsha ebhalwe ngalobu bunzima obususiwe.
Imikhono kungenye into ekukhetheni ibhulokhi yakho. Ungaguqula noma yimaphi amabhulokhi ukuze abe nemikhono ehlukene enjenge-raglan, ukubheja, kimono, inhloko eyisicaba nekhanda elilula. Ngokwesinye isandla, ungasusa imikhono ngokuphelele futhi wandise noma ushintshe ngokuphelele ukuma kwe-arm-scye. Kukhona nezindlela ezingenamkhawulo ongazivumelanisa nazo nolayini abathandekayo be-seam, imicibisholo, izinkomishi, njll…)
Qiniseka ukuthi ukhetha ibhulokhi elifanele lengubo elungile. Ukusebenzisa i-bodice block ukwenza ijazi bekungeke kube umqondo omuhle njengoba leli bhulokhi lingavumeli izingubo ezingeziwe ngaphansi noma ukunyakaza ngohlobo lwendwangu esindayo ozobe uyisebenzisa, (ikakhulukazi ndawonye nama-linings, facings kanye interfacings).
Izincwadi ezinhle zokwenza amaphethini wakho wokuvimba I-‘Metric Pattern Cutting ’kaWinifred Aldrich futhi ‘Ukusika Iphethini Kwezingubo Zangaphansi zika-Ann Haggar, Izingubo zasebhishi nezingubo zokungcebeleka ’.
