I am making dog collars to sell at a local craft fair to support my husbands dog and his new hobby( dock dogs).

I have to turn it inside out to sew it then turn it right side up again.

do any of you have any suggestions to make this process go any quicker. I only have a week.

There is a way.. Use a length of cord twice as long as finished product. stitch it into seam at beginning and let it run inside as you sew... do not catch in stitching anymore.. When finished , just give the cord a tug and turn your product. Then cut the cord and discard.. You might check any good sewing manual for the complete instructions.. This is a pretty classic way to turn a tube without a special tool..Pictures would probably help explain this procedure..:cool:
