What we do

01

Small batch embroidery

Runs sized for people who care what the run looks like. Hoodies, crewnecks, caps, jackets, tees, workwear. Left chest, sleeve, hood, back yoke, cuff.

02

Digitizing

Your artwork rebuilt as a stitch file by hand. Pull compensation, underlay, density, and stitch direction set for the exact fabric it is going into. Not an auto-trace.

03

Stitch files you keep

Digitizing is delivered as a real file. PES and the working format, sewn out and corrected before it ships, yours to take anywhere.

04

Raised and tonal work

3D foam, puff underlay, and matched-thread tonal marks that read as texture instead of colour. The techniques that make a garment worth turning over in your hands.

03 — Process

Four steps

  1. 01

    Send your artwork

    Artwork, a sketch, or a description. Vector is ideal, a photo is fine. Tell us the garment and where the hit goes.

  2. 02

    Digitize

    The art is rebuilt as a stitch file by hand, tuned to your fabric. You get a proof before anything runs.

  3. 03

    Sew out

    A physical test on the real garment. Density, pull, and registration get corrected here, not on your order.

  4. 04

    Run and deliver

    The batch is stitched, trimmed, and checked piece by piece. The stitch file goes to you with it.

04 — Questions

Before you order

Is there a minimum order?

No hard minimum. A single jacket back and a run of two hundred hoodies are both jobs we will quote. Small runs are the reason the shop exists — most embroiderers turn them away because the setup costs the same either way, and that setup is the part we are good at.

How long does it take?

Three to four weeks from the moment you approve the artwork — not from the moment you enquire. The clock starts at approval because digitizing, the sew-out and your sign-off all happen before anything runs, and rushing those is how a batch goes wrong.

If you have a hard date, say so in your order. We will tell you honestly whether it is possible rather than find out halfway through.

What does it cost?

It depends on stitch count, how many placements you want, the quantity and the garment — which is why nothing here is priced blind. Send the job and you get a quote back with line items, so you can see what each part costs instead of one number.

Do I supply the garments?

No. We source the blanks. Tell us the garment and the colours you want — hoodies, crewnecks, caps, jackets, tees, workwear — and they are bought, counted in, and counted out again as finished pieces.

Is there a digitizing fee?

Yes, once, and it is waived on larger runs. Digitizing is the hand work of rebuilding your artwork as stitch paths with the pull compensation, underlay and density set for your fabric. It is not an auto-trace, and it is the step that decides whether a logo still holds its shape after a wash.

The file it produces is delivered to you. It is yours, and you can take it to any shop.

What artwork do you need from me?

Vector is ideal — AI, EPS, SVG or PDF. A clean, high-resolution image works too, and so does a drawing if that is genuinely all you have. Everything gets rebuilt for the needle regardless, so you do not need to arrive with a production-ready file.

Do I see it before the whole batch runs?

Always. We stitch a sew-out on the same fabric type as your final garment and you approve it before the run. Density, pull and registration get corrected on that test piece rather than on your order.

Where can the logo go?

Left chest, full back, cap front, sleeve, cuff and nape. Raised 3D foam and puff underlay are available, as is matched-thread tonal work where the logo reads as texture rather than colour.
