Services You Can Use
Pattern services:
I specialize in men’s and women’s lined garments -what’s described as “single needle” meaning products that require the highest level of sewing operator skills- with specific emphasis on leather products and outerwear. My rates are reasonable at $50 per hour. Digitizing services are available at a rate of $30 per hour. Grading is billed traditionally at per piece, per size. I’m also available for pattern checking services which I enjoy ($50 per hour). I use Optitex CAD software, have a 4′ x 6′ digitizing table and a 72″ Ioline plotter to print markers.
Consulting and Instruction:
I’m available for phone consultation at $125 per hour, minimum half hour for an initial consultation and billed in quarter hour segments after that. I enjoy conducting product reviews; other firms charge thousands of dollars for these but in my opinion, few take over three hours. I am available to travel to provide consulting or training to your staff on site with a two day minimum. I also provide private instruction at my location with a maximum of three students but two is preferred. One class I think every designer or product developer needs is Production Pattern Making. You will need some tools and basic sewing skills but no pattern making skills are needed to successfully complete this day long class.
