How to use "Made longer" in context?
When asked to describe the differences between "made longer" and "made shorter", many people would emphasize the flexibility of the former. Made longer fabrics are often cut on the bias, meaning that they have a slant in their length which gives them a more fluid appearance. Made shorter fabrics, on the other hand, are often cut on the grain, which gives them a more rigid appearance. Besides the appearance, there are other factors to consider when selecting a fabric. For instance, made longer fabrics usually have a higher thread count which means they are denser and more durable.
