You're going to want to select the edges that you want to sew it along and get it sewn.

i got it to work thanks brian, but theres polygons that are smaller than others like in this picture. is there a way to stretch everything as equal? or do i need to move edges manually?

Not to my immediate knowledge, no.  Sorry.

If those are all equal in the 3D space, try with "unfold along V".
I don't remember if Maya 2017 exposes that command already or not. If not, you need to open the unfold legacy options and select the option "unfold constraint: vertical".
