Cutting fabric

I have yet to see a cutting table for fabric to be cut from a bolt in the Philippines. Most fabric is 60 inches wide and is measured with a meter stick (in yards or meters) then folded over at the measure and cut down the fold.

Each yard is measured from the bolt sitting on the floor

In this case when he got to the measured length he snipped a cut and tore the fabric off

The next piece he measured, folded it over the measured place and cut down the fold

In these big warehouses, they get to the material any way possible

Everywhere I've gone to buy material, the method of cutting is the same

No table, just eye it down the fold and cut away
