Embroidery – The Process

To fully understand the results of contract embroidery, it is important that we educate you on the process of taking a digital graphic, converting it to a stitch path, and creating apparel. While there are many variables and procedures for embroidery, we have listed the key specifics in a few simple steps.

Art

Our in-house apparel graphic designers will review your design and prepare it for digitizing and embroidery.

Digitizing

Once the design is mocked up on the correct garments and approved by the client, our digitizing and productions teams create a digitized file – translating a digital graphic into stitches and stitch paths.

Stitch-Out

Now that we have a digitized file, our production team will do a sample stitch out, ensure the file is accurate to the proof, and send you a photo for approval.
