Marker Making Services

Maximizing Fabric Efficiency, Minimizing Waste

At Create-A-Marker, our marker making services are essential to optimizing fabric usage and ensuring cost-efficiency in your production process. By interlocking your pattern pieces skillfully, we help you minimize waste and accurately determine the true cost of each garment.
When you design a new piece, your pattern maker creates a sample and provides an estimate of the yardage needed. However, these estimates can be unreliable. By making your marker before ordering fabric, you’ll know exactly how much material to purchase, which in turn gives you a clearer picture of your costs. Our expert team is here to provide that confidence.

What We Need to Get Started

To create your markers effectively, we’ll need the following information:

Cuttable Fabric Width: Specify the width for each of your fabrics.
Fabric Characteristics: Let us know if you have special requirements, such as stripes, plaids, or specific print placements.
Texture and Orientation: Share if your fabrics have any directional patterns or textures.
Size Range: Provide the size range for your garments. 

We work closely with you to maximize fabric use while minimizing waste. If we spot any inefficiencies in the marker design, we’ll flag them right away. Most markers typically run at about 80% efficiency, and we’re committed to advising you on the best ways to achieve optimal results. This may involve adding seams or adjusting the style of the marker—ultimately, the decision is yours, but we’re here to guide you. Once your marker is complete, we plot it out and perform a thorough check on the table to ensure every detail is accurate. Our high attention to detail guarantees that you receive markers that meet your specific production needs, empowering you to make informed decisions for your fabric orders.
