making multiples

We’re starting production for the new season soon, this past week has been about making final alterations and checking all the pattern pieces before handing them in to be graded (sized) and marked (which is like making blueprints to show how the fabrics should be cut and assembled, just like you’d have blueprints for building a house). I’m also writing up production specs, instructions and details for the factory to follow as they get ready to churn out multiples of the new Half Dot jackets.

With most of the technical stuff now in the hands of the experts, I’m also beginning to sample fabrics to make thicker coats for next winter’s collection. Full speed ahead!
