The Blouse Journey

 

The women of PaalaGuttaPalle have embarked on their production of ready made bouses, under the care and mentorship of Rama Narayanan of Umbara. Watch magic unfold ...


 NOTE FROM

Umbara Ramanarayanan

I had this group in mind for a workshop ever since they made beautiful bags for Umbara. Initially, I too thought the impact was because of perfect coordination, and delivery. But, the bags were perfect. We ordered 80 bags. And they came with soldier walk uniformity. A challenge for even brands like GAP.
It was a fruitful 3 days of training these 4 ladies in making blouses. Please join is in wishing paalaguttapalle team the very best. This endeavour would be beneficial for those who would like to place orders directly with them so they can develop a sustainable model.
The quality of studentship in them and the willingness to learn is uncorrupted by life situations, language barrier, physical tiredness or attitude issues. They are single focused and completely straight faced. They exude the kind of teamwork that large organisations envy.
Watch out for
Paalaguttapalle
Blouses!

 As PGP blouses progress proficiency towards taking orders, those who purchased them are sending in their appreciation.

Quality blouses, with Umbara standards and cheap on the side. One feels, good and content and proud with their buy.
If you are looking for affordable sewing options, if you are looking for affordable blouses. PGP blouses is a place to check out.

The blouses arrive on time. Thanks to Umbara Ramanarayanan

Her designs? The best!
Price? The best!
Her service? Always the best!
What are you waiting for?
For blouses, they are the one. And they have generated employed for many women. When you buy a blouse, you know you have done the right thing. There are many who have benefitted.
This is what the lady behind the brand has written to me
"Hey Sreemati Sen, thank you so much. For this post. The PGP blouses were made as part of the culmination of. A training program we did for the ladies of @pallaguttapalle. They are an amazing bunch of enterprising women. The products have come with very good finish and fit."
So....This pujo... Umbara ke naam! 

c A brief note on behind the scenes,
They had the commitment, and will to learn. So what did we really do?
Nothing much, except taught them the process, gave them the tools. Shared with them a well researched prototype and its templates. Gave online guidance, answered doubts, cleared snags, coaxed them when they felt stuck. Pushed them, nudged them, got them to execute 45 blouses identical in cut and construction and fit.
Assembly line precision over long distance in tailoring. Heard of it?
No sir, all we did was tilled the soil, watered the Earth, and sunned the seeds.
What grows, grows. Apples or oranges.

Busy days are happy days at Paalaguttapalle.
Todays parcels have gone to Pakala for shipping. And the women have planned today for their other learnings.
They are now perfecting their readymade blouse skills, as guided and mentored by
Rama Narayanan
of
Umbara
And quilts as guided by
Murthy Sudhakar
.
Both need attention to detail and perfection. The women are capable of both
Anita is the best at blouses. Her pickup is excellent. And now shes guiding the others thro the cutting. The care with which they guide one another and the smoothness with which they learn from each other is remarkable.
Rani is at the machine with the patchwork quilt. A slight mismatch and the whole thing needs to be undone patiently and redone. It goes on with unflagging perseverance till 100% satisfaction is reached.
This tiny room 10"×10" is where many silent miracles have been wrought by these amazing women. Who know of no charms and magic spells other than hard work, persistence, and pursuit of perfection. In cooperation and collective goodwill.
