THE BUYING ANSWER

Start with a clear definition.

Give each panel a name and show its orientation on front, back and underside views. Mark the fabric and trim references that belong to it. This makes construction comments precise without asking the factory to interpret a styled photograph alone.

The decision behind the detail.

A visually continuous pattern may cross several joined panels. Review the joining lines before deciding where an artwork or decoration should sit.

PREPARE ONLY WHAT IS RELEVANT

Three details to bring.

Panel names
Assign stable names to each visible and hidden section.
Material allocation
Match every panel to its proposed fabric reference.
Joining lines
Mark the seams that connect adjacent panels.

Check together

  • Check all views use the same panel names.
  • Include underside sections absent from the hero photograph.
  • Resolve any panel with no material assignment.
