Another Day, Another Application

as i was walking through the stitch lab, i came across an interesting application sewn on our mg-3dge-7 netting machine. although this particular sample was sewn on a piece of flannel that had been lying around, i thought i'd post it to the blog for people to check out. to accommodate a dealer's request, the stitch lab modified our sample mg-3dge-7 so that it could insert a piece of 3/16" cord into the stitch, an application that is particularly useful for laundry bags.

The NEW MERROW MG-2DFS-2!!!

The MG-2DFS-2 is an advanced sewing machine that has been introduced in 2011 to sew on today's technical fabrics. Built on Merrow's unique cam driven architecture, the FS-2 sews a flat seam that replaces conventional cover and flatlock stitching. At 1/8” in width and with a simple two-thread design, the stitch is as attractive and comfortable as it is functional, and is nearly imperceptible when worn on base layer garments that rest next to skin. For visual distinction and technical performance, the MG-2DFS-2 is the next advancement in technical sewing.

MG-3U for Hook & Loop Patches

With the new MG-3U-V, you can now add the traditional Merrow edge to removable emblems. Merrow has configured the standard MG-3U to put a clean edge on hood and loop insignias and emblems without taking up the hook and loop material that adheres the patch. The result - an emblem that looks great and won't come off. The MG-3U-V uses a specifically configured finger plate and tension setting when sewing, both of which can be adjusted at the Merrow factory to suit the particular shape and size of end user patches. Contact sales@merrow.com for details.

Spring Update

It's 65º in MA today, and we've just finished 6 months of work at Merrow... it just feels like time for a quick blog update.

Over the next couple of days we'll be launching the new website (it's actually up.... but we're working the bugs out before a big announcement).

We'll also be rolling out the new Raven table from Merrow - it's a great product and our folks have both created a great product and great documentation around it.

There are new sewing machines scheduled to be announced over the next couple weeks as well.

And to top it off we are readying the launch of the Merrow Branded Stitch - a project two years in the works.

So it's exciting here, to say the least. I'm proud of all the work that's gone into this springs' product launches and new marketing work.

We're also taking the product line on the Road and if you ever head over to travels.merrow.com you'll see over the next couple weeks that Merrow will be visiting Turkey, Germany and China.

So stay tuned! It's going to be an interesting couple of weeks here!

The applications commith

For eons over at Merrow HQ we've lamented how rarely we communicate the number of really cool things we can sew. SOP is that a customer sends us some interesting (and challenging...) fabric and we build a machine for it and that's that.

Over the past couple of years we've tried different ways of managing this type of information. There was even a very short lived 'let's publish it to the blog...'  Fat lot of good that did.

 Well - a new years resolution around here was to get this done, and get it done right.

 The Creative Director has decided that it's happening in January. We think this motivation is also tied to his --probably much shorter lived effort to get back in shape-- but no one is going to complain.

 So what's it look like:

 How about this
 EMBLEMS
 or this
 BLANKETS
 or maybe this
 LINGERIE
 and some of this
 END-TO-END SEAMING

EDIT:

 and a little more of this
 BABY GARMENTS

AND
MILITARY SEWING AND SEAMING (some nomex flight suits etc.. )


(there are 8 more to come... stay tuned)

Fact is that  we make machines that sew really hard, really beautiful, and sometime just plain awesome applications. And finally after a long long wait, we're going to be able to share some of these things with the world.

Enjoy - let us know what you think
