Childrenswear Flats. by Janelle Washington
Here is a great Adobe Illustrator example of how to detail flats for the factory/sample maker. It clearly shows button size, stitching, etc. To make the process faster companies have sketch templates to use as a base to add or subtract details.
You may notice there are no measurements. In some cases, if the factory has your pattern blocks and have done similar styles in previous seasons, they can sometimes work from that and make minor adjustments.
If you want a specific shoulder strap width with a special stitching, and it’s a key detail, you would need to note that on the sketch so a tech designer and/or sample maker could make the necessary adjustments.
