If I have fabric made, how do I get it to my manufacturer (assuming the mill who spins my yarn isnt the same shop who will create my final product) to sew my designs?
First of all, you are the manufacturer; you mean “sewing contractor”. And it’s a good thing you’ve assumed that the mill is not the same shop that will actually sew it because that is never going to happen! Mills do one thing and one thing only and that is to make and process fabrics. They do not sew -ever- at least not in this country. The kind of shop you’re describing is known as a vertical manufacturer with some steps removed, i.e. vertical manufacturers are not going to go to this amount of work to do this for anyone other than themselves; they won’t be available for outsourced or contract work to you..Now, how do you get the fabric from one shop to the other? The glaringly obvious answer is shipping it via freight or am I missing something in your question? The typical arrangement when ordering fabric is the seller will ask where you want the goods. You can have everything shipped to your location or to any other location, you pick.
