Starting Your Own Clothing Line: **Tip of the Day**


What is an essential key to creating a clothing collection?... Fabric, obviously. ha haa! One problem when you are starting out is that many times you can not afford to buy the 1000s of yards up front that are required to last through an entire season of orders. Then you think, oh, I'll just buy what I need right now and come back for more as I need it. Hmmm, nope, because the fabric store can unexpectedly discontinue that fabric, out of freaking nowhere!!! Nevertheless, the chance must be taken. Get what you can afford, and hope more will still be available when you need it.
That will be my Starting Your Own Clothing Line: Tip of the Day  :-P
