EMBROIDERY 101

Embroidery is the technique of decorating apparel, fabric, or other materials with needle and thread. It can be produced by a machine or by hand. In our case we do all of our embroidery with a multihead embroidery machine.

The following steps give a quick overview of our embroidery process.
ARTWORK:

A design is drawn, traced, scanned, or called up from an existing computer image.
DIGITIZING:

The design is converted from a typical computer format such as a jpeg and digitized into an embroidery format that the machine can read and reproduce.
UPLOAD:

The digitized design is uploaded into the computer attached to the embroidery machine.
SET UP:

Once the design is in the machine the products are set up and attached to the embroidery heads using the various hoops and frames.
SEW THE DESIGN:

The thread colors are now chosen and the machine sews the design on the garment. 
FINISHED PRODUCT:

The garment is now ready to be presented to the customer!
