VC Design and Sew specialise in Textile Product Design and Manufacture. We can take your project from consultation through to manufacture or any stage in between.
We take your idea and turn it into reality.
Set up originally as ‘The Soft Group’ in 2002 by Val Cox, who has a BA (Hons) degree in Design Management and was a business mentor for Business Link and the East Midlands Development Agency, the company benefits from her years of experience in product design, development and production.
We talk to you about your product idea and the design. What problem does the product solve who is the target audience and how will they use it?
What do you want it to look like?
What stage is it at?
From the concept stage we move onto developing your product. This can be drawings or very basic prototypes which show you and us how your product can be made, Or you may have an existing product which would benefit
from updating
Prototypes show you and us how your product will function and how the materials behave during sewing. Prototypes are for your approval and can be shown to your clients. Once approved we can proceed with the production run.
Pattern making is a crucial part of the
manufacturing process. Initially we use card for the prototypes as they are easy to alter. As production increases the card patterns are used to make press knives or acrylic patterns.
We can cut fabric in many deferent ways depending on the the design of the product. An Eastman cutter Is used for layered fabric. A hydraulic press which uses press knives. Hand cutting using a rotary cutter or scissors.
Cut-Make-Trim. We find the best sewing method for your product. We have various sewing machines to suit many sewing methods. We can accommodate small batch production or large batch production
