What is Embroidery?

Embroidery is an elegant and stylish way to decorate or personalize any garment or embroidery friendly item.

The digitized image is saved on disk and loaded to the embroidery machine. The machine uses the digital instructions to create your design with threads. The number of stitches that the machine needs to make, the quantity of items being embroidered, and the location of the embroidery determines the embroidery cost.

Any design that will need more than just keyboard lettering will have to be digitized. Digitizing is the process of taking an image of your logo and converting into stitches using specialized software developed especially for the embroidery industry. Refer to our Digitizing  section to learn more on digitizing.
