Standard x Unlimited color embroidery

Standard embroidery: Choose from 15 thread colors and combine up to 6 of them in a single design.

Unlimited color embroidery: Choose any color except metallic and neon. You can also create multi-color, gradient, or solid-color designs with no color limitations. For this technique, we use a white, recycled polyester thread that’s dyed during the embroidery process.

Embroidery types

We offer two types of embroidery—flat and 3D puff.

Flat embroidery is a technique where stitches lay flat on the surface. In contrast, 3D puff embroidery is raised with a foam insert under the stitching, making it look 3D.

If your embroidery design file isn’t up to the needed quality standards, we’ll adjust it and send you an updated version that you can approve with one click.

Embroidery disclaimers

  • Digitization converts your design file to a format that our embroidery machines can read.
  • We use a run stitch (single-line stitch) for fine details in flat embroidery.
  • The generated preview on the mockup is for visual reference only and might not match the final result.
  • Human involvement in the embroidery process can lead to minor variations in the exact placement on garments and products.

Tips for best results

Create embroidery-specific designs. Embroidery is not printing, so many graphics that work on other products won’t be suitable for embroidery products. The best embroidery designs are text-based graphics or simple designs with clean, bold lines. Note that your order will be put on hold if your design has intricate details. Once you’ve updated your order, we’ll review it to ensure everything’s in check.
