Pros & Cons of Embroidery

Advantages of Embroidery

High-end finish with texture and depth

Versatile across different garments and materials

Long-lasting, wrinkle-resistant stitching

Considerations with Embroidery

More expensive than other methods

Simplified designs only; small details may not stitch well

Limited thread colors available

Artwork and File Requirements

Preferred Format: Vector files (AI, EPS, SVG) ensure crisp stitching

Raster Files: High-res (300 DPI) JPG or PNG can work, additional conversion fees may apply

Design Limitations: Fine details may not produce well. Text must be at least 0.25" tall.

Color Blending & Gradients: Not recommended; single-color fills are ideal

Max Print Area: We’ll assist you after reviewing your design and garment choice

Pricing Info

With embroidery, there is a one-time digitizing fee of $60 per design.

Final pricing depends on:

  • Stitch count and design complexity 
  • Order quantity 
  • Garment type (e.g., thicker textiles may need special stabilization)

 

A detailed quote will be provided after reviewing your design and product.
