G.) Enumerate the making steps

1. Cotton-polyester fabric is shipped to the factory in huge bolts in order to construct the pillow covering. The fabric must be calendared so that the sewn casing may be blown apart and easily separated during filling. Once calendared the fabric is taken to huge tables and cut apartwith either heavy shears or fabric cutting machines.

2.         Automatic sewing machines are used to grab the fabric and sew stacks of rectangular-shaped fabric. The machine operator takes 2 pieces and sews them together around the edges. While sewing the edges together, the tag that lists the contents of the pillow is attached. The operator then turns the pillow covering inside out so that the seams are on the inside of the pillowcase.

1. The casings are moved to the pillow machine, which blows the polyester filling into the pillows. Once the polyester is inside the machine, the blowing machine combs the polyester for it to be fluffy. After this, a blower pushes the polyester into the casing.

1. After the pillow is filled, the workers will close the opening in the pillowcase using an industrial sewing machine. The pillow is weighed at that time to ensure that it includes the requisite amount of batting.

1. The completed pillows are moved to machines for bagging them. The machine blows air into thin plastic bags to open them up and then inserts the pillows. The bagged pillows are placed into boxes, ready for shipping.
