What are some other tips for better productivity?
1. Bias tape is great to wrap hoops with to prevent slippage of silky materials. It provides a softer grabbing power. Floral tape is also used for this purpose. 2. By keeping hand-sewing needles near your production equipment, you will be able to repair garments quickly when needed as well as add a few stitches to areas that are sparse. 3. Keep a supply of masking tape in your production area. This is a great way to hold and mark garments without permanent damage. 4. Soap slivers can also be used to mark fabrics for sewing positions. Just by using a damp sponge you can remove the mark. 5. Magnetic tape with a peel-away sticky backing is a great way to hold something to the side of the machine or wall. Velcro strips can also be used this purpose. 6. White cards or sheets of paper should be near the machine to use in threading a needle. It will provide better visibility. 7. To mark jacket backs use a yardstick held in place by spring loaded wooden clothespins. 8.
