How To Place A Marker Making Order:

To place a marker making order for your pet outfits, follow these five simple steps for a seamless process:

1. Choose Fabric Type: Begin by selecting the type of fabric you wish to use for your marker. This is important as different fabrics may have unique requirements for marker making, such as grain direction and stretch.

2. Select Total Sizes to be Marked: Decide on the total number of sizes for which you need markers. This could range from standard sizes to custom measurements specific to different dog breeds or pet types.

3. Select Total Pattern Pieces Contained in Each Size: Determine the number of pattern pieces that each size will contain. This information is crucial for accurate marker creation and fabric estimation.

4. Complete Checkout Process: After selecting your options, click the "Add to Cart" button and complete the checkout process.

5. Email Confirmation and Upload Files: Upon receiving the confirmation email, upload your pet outfit design files with essential details like fabric type, pet sizes, marker width, fabric grain direction, and any other preferences. This ensures optimal fabric yield and marker efficiency for the best project outcome.

Understanding Marker-Making Order: 

When initiating a marker-making order, it's essential to have a thorough understanding of the specific requirements and considerations. The following steps will facilitate a smooth and efficient process:

Customer Order Size Breakdown: 

• Analyze the customer's order to determine the required size breakdown for each garment or style. Identify the quantity of each size needed to fulfill the customer's order, taking into account variations in demand for different sizes.

Cutting Ticket Order for Marker Making

In this form table, the left column lists the sizes, and the top row lists the colors and their corresponding style numbers. The body of the table contains the quantities for each color and size combination. The "Total Garments" row summarizes the total quantity for each size, and the overall "Total" provides the grand total of garments to be cut.

This format provides a clear and organized overview of the cutting ticket order for marker making.

Fabric Information: 

• Provide details about the fabric to be used, including the fabric width, type of fabric (e.g., knit, woven), and any specific considerations related to the fabric's characteristics, such as: Whether the fabric has a one-way print, nap, or printed fabric with no specific direction, which can impact the orientation of pattern pieces during marker making.

Pattern Pieces Layout: 

• Ensure a clear understanding of how pattern pieces should be laid out in the marker, considering marker direction and fabric utilization.

Marker Layout Methods

By following these steps and having a clear understanding of the customer's order, pattern pieces layout, fabric information, and marker layout methods, you can effectively initiate a marker-making order and ensure that the marker aligns with the specific production requirements.

How to Calculate The Total Sizes That Need To Be Marked On a Marker

Formula Explanation: The formula Total Sizes = (Number of Sizes) x (Number of Fabrics) signifies that to obtain the total sizes needed to be marked on a marker, the number of sizes is multiplied by the number of fabrics. This multiplication reflects the need to account for each size across all the different fabric types on which it needs to be marked.

Example Representation:

In the given example, where there are 4 sizes and 4 fabrics (SELF, LINING, FUSING, CONTRAST), the calculation is performed as follows: Total Sizes = 4 sizes x 4 fabrics = 16 sizes in total to be marked.

This representation demonstrates the application of the formula in determining the total sizes needed to be marked on a marker across different fabric types, aiding in efficient marker planning and layout.

Understanding Marker Making and Size Ratios

In the apparel industry, marker making is the process of creating a layout of pattern pieces on a large sheet of fabric to minimize waste and optimize fabric usage during cutting. Size ratios play a crucial role in marker making as they determine the quantity of each garment size that needs to be included in the marker.

Role of Size Ratios in Marker Making

Size ratios, such as small, medium, and large, are used to determine how many garments of each size need to be included in the marker. These ratios are based on the demand for different sizes of the garment. For example, if a particular style of clothing is sold in a ratio of 2 small, 3 medium, and 2 large, the marker needs to accommodate this distribution of sizes.

Here's a simple representation of marker ratios in tabular form:

In this example, the marker would need to be designed to accommodate 2 small, 3 medium, and 2 large garments.

The Concept of Marker Making with Double Sizes

A common practice in marker making is to include double sizes in the marker. This means that instead of having separate markers for each size, the marker contains combined sizes, such as small-medium and medium-large. For example, a marker might include 2 small, 3 medium, and 2 large sizes in the same marker.

Advantages of Including Double Sizes

By including double sizes in the marker, designers and manufacturers can achieve several benefits:

1. Reduced Fabric Plys: When double sizes are included in the marker, the cutter only needs to spread half the amount of fabric plys for those combined sizes. This reduces the time and effort required for spreading the fabric, leading to increased efficiency in the cutting process.

2. Fabric Saving: Doubling sizes in the marker helps to save fabric by optimizing the layout. Since the marker accommodates combined sizes, it allows for better utilization of the fabric, minimizing wastage and maximizing the use of available material.

3. Cost Efficiency: By optimizing fabric usage, including double sizes in the marker contributes to cost efficiency in production. It helps to minimize material wastage, ultimately reducing the overall production costs.

4. Streamlined Production: Including double sizes streamlines the cutting process by reducing the number of markers needed. This simplifies the production process and helps in maintaining a more organized workflow.
