Making your vision
a reality
If it's your first time having your design manufactured, and you're not sure where to start, that's okay!
​
If you only have a vision in your head, with some hand drawn sketches & photo inspiration, start with Teck Pack Creation.
​
If you've been producing your design yourself for a while, start at Sample Creation.
​
All paths begin with scheduling a discovery call at info@michiganapparelmanu.com
​
1. Tech Pack Creation
Upon finalizing the design concept during the design meeting, we will work on technical sketches. These are detailed, flat drawings that provide a visual guide for production. These sketches are essential for ensuring design accuracy and eliminating any ambiguities before moving into the production phase.
2. Fabric & Notion Sourcing
We work with a wide array of trusted suppliers to find the highest quality fabrics, trims, and embellishments that align with our client's design vision and sustainability goals.
3. Pattern Making
Pattern making is when we translate the technical sketches into sewing patterns. These patterns serve as the blueprint for cutting fabric in the production stage, ensuring accuracy in the dimensions and fit of the final product.
4. Sample Creation
With the pattern ready, we move on to cutting and sewing the first sample. This is the first tangible embodiment of our initial concept and serves as a prototype for the final product.
5. Pattern Grading
When we have finalized the sample and completed any changes, we can grade the pattern pieces for your specified size range.
6. Time Study
Once you are satisfied with the prototype, we will do a time study on 9 additional units, to determine the price of production. We sew the full range of sizes within the 9 units to ensure that grading went smoothly.
7. Production Cutting & Sewing
Once we have finalized the samples in the full sizing range and completed any changes, we can start production! Congrats for making it this far!
