CuttingCutting of fabrics for samples is done by placing a pattern template on the back of the fabric and
then the area to be cut will be marked with a pen. The fabric is now ready to be cut with a pair of scissors. For cutting of bulk fabrics we use an electric cutting mould (heat cutter) that is shaped according to the pattern template. The fabrics are then rolled onto a long cutting table with the pile facing down and the heat cutter is placed on the backing of the fabric and each panel is cut piece by piece.

Mounting of eyes
Immediately after fabric cutting the eyes will be mounted using safety eyes that come with a childproof snap on a locking disk (see drawing). There is a wide assortment of eye types available for your toy made of glass, plastic etc. The size and placement of the eyes can alter the characteristics of the toy.

Joints
Joints can be used in plush toys so arms, legs and head can move. There are a number of available joints in the market like screw joints and cotter pin joints, but we mostly produce jointed toys using plastic joints with washers and locking disks (see drawings). The joints are put on the toy just before the sewing starts.

Embroidery
Embroidery can be done directly on the body fabric used to make the toy, but the fabric panels must be embroidered before sewing.
