Just exactly what is Embroidery?

It is an embellishment of a fabric or garment in which colored threads are sewn on to the fabric to create a design. Embroidery may be done either by hand or machine.

Embroidery is generally used within the promotional product industry on apparel, bags or other cloth products.

What is the first step?

We begin by taking your logo, message or name and "digitizing" the artwork.
This is the specialized process of converting two dimensional artwork into stitches or thread.

Unlike some other types of imprinting, you can provide us your artwork in just about any popular formats(jpg, tif, eps, bmp,etc.). We don't actually "convert" your artwork; rather we actually recreate the artwork using stitches. Once converted, the digitizer instructs the sewing machine to sew the design, in colors selected.

Because embroidery is three dimensional, the results are far more exciting than traditional silks screen or other imprinting methods.

How many colors can I use?

There is no limit to the colors you can use. Since the machine is using thread to create the end result it makes no difference if it is selecting black or green.
