A custom embroidery design usually refers to a design created from an original logo or graphic, although it may refer to a design created using elements from a stock design or even a simple text design created from scratch.
Each of our products listed includes the preparation of a custom design for your embroidery. There are no setup fees when you order at least 12.
To produce a custom design, a "digitizer" must produce a series of instructions for the computer controlled embroidery equipment to follow. A good design is the foundation of a well-done embroidery. Specialized software allows the digitizer to create the design by viewing the artwork and tell the software how to convert the image into stitches.
This process requires an understanding of the different types of stitches and fabrics and how they work together as a medium and rendering. Athough digitizing software has become more sophisticated, allowing less skilled digitizers to produce designs, better designs are produced by experienced digitizers.
After a design is created, we proof each one to make sure what looks good on screen really works out as well once it's sewn of fabric. Any edits that are needed are performed and the design is resewn to make sure the changes produced the desired result.
Once the design meets our standards, we send you a copy by email for your approval. Only after your approval is your order moved to production. We will ship your order to you within five days of your approval.
