Embroidery
Embroidery uses needle and thread to create beautiful long-lasting garments. A great way to add extra detail and texture to designs. We even do oversize embroidery!
Best Cases For Embroidery
Embroidery is best for any kind of vector design, but a DST or EMB file is necessary for the machines to process the file. If you need to digitize your design, we can help you out with that! It's also important to note that embroidery comes out best on thick garments like sweatshirts/ pants/ shorts, collared/ dress shirts, and heavyweight tees. The process is a bit tricky and thin garments have a tendency to "bunch up" and ruin the garment altogether.
