✂️ Hello Tech Packers!
I hope everyone is having a wonderful holiday weekend ❤️
While preparing for Thanksgiving this week, I realized that tech packs and cooking recipes have a lot in common.
A tech pack is the recipe for creating a garment much like a baking recipe for cookies.
❓What is the number one complaint I hear from pattern makers and sewing factories? Really looooonnng tech packs (7 or more pages) or incomplete tech packs.
Have you ever stumbled upon a nice looking baking recipe and the chef shares her entire life story or irrelevant information? You just want the recipe right!? Same goes for the pattern maker or sewing contractor. More is not more and less is not right. In the season of over consumption and abundance, just give the right amount.
One more tech pack tip: Measuring on the body as I’m doing in this photo is a big fail. Mark the spot and measure the garment flat every time.
