Marking & Grading

Precise Specs. Clean Files. Faster Production.

How We Work

We approach every job with a patternmaker’s eye and a production mindset.

Marking and grading may be behind the scenes, but they’re make-or-break when it comes to fit, sizing, and production costs. Our team has a patternmaker’s eye and a production mindset. That means we don’t just plug in numbers, we check for consistency, make sure the grading works in real life, and help you catch problems before they reach the cutting table. Plus, we work fast — most jobs are done in 3–5 business days.

What We Offer

  • Marking: We create precise markers for each pattern, optimizing fabric usage while keeping your design’s integrity intact.
  • Grading: We provide custom grading for sizes, ensuring consistency across all sizes in your collection.
  • Small Lot Cuts: Need a small run for a unique project or runway show? We can help with small production runs while maintaining the same attention to detail as larger orders.
  • Digitizing: Digital files ready for production
  • Frequent Questions

    Do I need to have my patterns made by JPW?

    No. We work with patterns from other shops or freelance pattern makers all the time. 

    Yes. We cut small lots in-house and can scale up with trusted partners.

    Most marking and grading jobs are completed in 3–5 business days, depending on complexity.
