What do you use? is it printed for sale? Thanks! Why Yes! My pattern surely is for sale! If you would like to purchase a Ghawazee Coat Pattern please send $10 via Paypal to Please be aware that the pattern requires some minor adjusting to get a perfect fit. I strongly recommend that you make a mock up out of an inexpensive fabric before proceeding to anything of value. The areas that seem to need the most adjusting are in the shoulders and the chest area. I would recommend adding a few inches to the shoulders beyond what the pattern dictates. The chest cut out area also needs to be adjusted from the original lines on the pattern for a comfortable fit. Thanks so much for writing! If you have any more questions about the pattern please feel free to write again.

I am in the process of designing/building a "belly dancer's jacket" (not meaning to sound ill informed, I can't remember what they're called for the life of me!). I was hoping you'd have a suggestion for a pattern or perhaps other expert info to share. Merry met! Thanks so much for writing. I think what you are looking for is a Ghawazee Coat. Many Tribal Style dancers have adopted this particular costuming bit and you will see it a lot in many historical dance performaces.The Suburban Ghawazee provides an excellent review of one pattern as well as multiple places to purchase it. If you are feeling adventureous Tala al-Hooriya's Website will walk you through how to make your own pattern and The Costume Goddess will show you how to modify an existing dress or jacket pattern into a Ghawazee Coat. Adira sells an adjustable Ghawazee Coat pattern. I also sell a pattern for a modern rendition of the Ghawazee Coat. The current pattern I have for sale is sleeveless but I am working on another that will feature optional sleeves and other customizable bits. Thanks again for writing and good luck! Here are some pics of Ghawazee Coats made from my pattern:]]> http://costume.kamice.com/2007/06/ghawazee_coat_1.php http://costume.kamice.com/2007/06/ghawazee_coat_1.php Costuming Thu, 28 Jun 2007 09:41:28 -0800 Ladies and Gentlemen, I'm pleased to welcome all of you to Kamice Costumes.
