Kite Sewing and Trimming

The panels are then sewn together making sure all seams are straight and accurate.

The kite is sewn in a number of steps:

1.	The centre panels are sewn together and the wing panels sewn together and these are then returned to the cutter for trimming.
2.	The wing panels are sewn to the centre panels.
3.	The left and right wings are sewn together and trimmed to size.

Depending on the kite and the number of panels each kite can go back and forth between the cutter and sewer anywhere up to 5 times to ensure all pieces are accurately put together.
