What is Embroidery?

Embroidery is a garment-decoration method that uses thread stitched directly into fabric to create a logo, design, or lettering. The result is a textured, dimensional finish that adds a polished and professional look to apparel and accessories. It’s especially popular for business uniforms, polos, hats, jackets, and workwear.

Embroidery is a great choice for professional or trendy apparel that calls for a polished, textured finish. It adds dimension to a logo or design, creating a classic yet eye-catching look. It’s especially popular for polos and workwear, beanies, trucker hats, snapbacks, dad hats, jackets, and sweatshirts, making it a great fit for employee uniforms, company apparel, and branded merchandise.

Embroidered names, initials, or team numbers can turn everyday items like backpacks into striking, personalized gifts your team will be excited to use. Whether you’re outfitting your staff or celebrating the people behind your business, embroidery creates a distinctive finish that makes your brand feel personal.

Not sure which decoration method is right for your project? Embroidery creates a stitched, dimensional finish, and works well for consistent branding across larger quantities as well as individual personalization on items like work shirts or backpacks. Screen printing applies ink directly to the fabric and is often ideal for larger quantities featuring the same design. Heat press can is a great option for gradient or photo-realistic designs. We can help you choose the best application for your garments, artwork, and order.

What We Embroider

Polos

The most strategic choice to create a unified and polished look across your entire staff. Embroidered polos are the way to go for service-based roles and trades to build credibility, familiarity, and recognition amongst your team as they canvas client spaces. From crawlspace to corporate office, the polo makes a lasting impression everywhere.

Hats & Beanies

Hats and beanies are embroidery’s most popular canvas. A stitched logo on a hat or beanie is iconic, eye-catching, and made to be worn. Browse trending styles like snapbacks, trucker hats, dad hats, and cuffed and uncuffed beanies, then create a branded piece your clients and customers will be proud to rep.

Uniforms & Workwear

Dress your whole team or staff in workwear that lasts, looks sharp, and creates a professional unified look. We customize healthcare scrubs, safety service uniforms, dress shirts, industrial work shirts, and vests, from cozy fleece to weather-insulated, all built to hold up on the job.

Jackets & Outerwear

From heavyweight quarter zips and hoodies to rugged, weatherproof jackets, we carry high-visibility, rainproof, and windproof options. Outdoor crews can count on dependable layers that hold up season after season. Also a smart choice for stocking a gift shop or merch line, since high-value garments are the pieces people keep.

Patches

Upgrade your garments and hats with premium custom patches. Order them individually with your choice of backing or have us attach them to the garments in your order. Choose from styles like leather, fully embroidered, PVC, and more, with a range of edge finishes and twill colors to match your brand.

Backpacks & More

Personalized gifts your team, staff, donors, and clients that they’ll actually use. We embroider custom logos, names, initials, and numbers onto quality gear like backpacks, canvas totes, aprons, laptop cases, and more. Choose popular premium brands like Carhartt and Nike for a polished, professional finish.

Sourced At Guaranteed Quality

We partner with SanMar and S&S Activewear to promise quality garments, every time.

Every piece has to meet our standard before it leaves the shop. No exceptions, no "close enough." Because when your logo's on it, it's not just our reputation on the line. It's yours.

All In-House

Fulfilling your order in-house means faster service and quality control checks after every single step.
We own our production completely. Consistency and accountability are guaranteed.

Convenience At Every Step

Our number one goal is to make this process easy and seamless. What that means: a response to your quote within 24 hours, and your order fulfilled two weeks (at most) from quote approval. We order your garments, we stitch your garments, we deliver your garments. No guessing where your order is or how it'll turn out. Real humans, real ownership, for every single job.

How many pieces do I need to order?

Our embroidery minimum is 6 pieces. From there, we can handle orders anywhere from 6 to 6,000+!

How much does custom embroidery cost?

Embroidery pricing depends on several factors, including the number of garments ordered, the number of thread colors in your design, the number of print locations, and the type of garment you choose. For some ballpark numbers, embroidered polos start at $18, and embroidered hats start at $8. For more information and starting costs, view our Pricing Guide here.

How long will my embroidery order take?

We strive to get every order embroidered and shipped within two weeks from quote approval.

Can I bring in my own garments for you to embroider?

We no longer accept customer-provided garments in order to maintain speedy timelines and consistent, accurate, and organized quality-control practices in our shop.

If you have an account with SanMar and have secured unique pricing for your business, please share this with us and we will be happy to price match our garments as a courtesy.

Can you match my brand colors?

Absolutely! We use a three-step process to match every order’s brand colors:

  1. Get your codes: We start with your brand’s Pantone codes if you have them, or find the closest match to your RGB/CMYK brand colors using Adobe.
  2. Verify accuracy: We cross-check those codes against our available thread color library (125 spools and counting).
  3. Run a thread test: We compare the chosen thread colors to our official Pantone swatchbook and adjust as necessary.

Can you digitize my logo for embroidery? What is embroidery digitizing?

Yes, we can! We can digitize logos for embroidery for a flat fee of $25. 

Digitizing a logo for embroidery means converting a flat graphic file (like a .png file or a .pdf file) into a specialized stitch-based file that an embroidery machine can read. It’s like a digital map that gives our sewing needles the exact routes to take to translate your logo colors into physical thread.

Will I get a digital proof before my order gets sent to print?

Yes! Once you agree to move forward with your official quote, our designer will send you a digital mockup for approval or feedback before we begin production.

We can provide a mockup prior to official quote approval for an additional fee.

Can I order a sample before placing a larger order?

While we usually do not offer decorated sample, we do provide the opportunity to order a blank (undecorated) garment sample to ensure you are happy with the quality and fit of the garment before placing your order. We offer this at a discounted rate and the sample can then be applied toward your bulk order.

Is embroidery durable?

Yes! Embroidery is a durable decoration method designed to stand up to regular wear and washing. At Screen Printing Northwest, we use quality, durable embroidery thread and appropriate backing materials to help support clean stitching, maintain the design’s shape without any puckering, and create a professional finish that lasts. With proper care, embroidered logos and designs can stay looking great through everyday use, making embroidery an excellent choice for uniforms, workwear, hats, bags, and personalized team gifts.

As with any decorated garment, following the care instructions for the specific item helps preserve its appearance and longevity.

Can any logo be embroidered?

Most logos can be embroidered! While there’s no set limit on the number of thread colors, very small text, fine lines, and intricate details may need to be simplified to translate well into stitching. Not to fear if this may apply to your logo. Our in-house graphic designer can help refine your artwork and make thoughtful adjustments to ensure your logo looks its best in embroidery. We’ll help you find the right balance between preserving your brand and creating a clean, professional finished product.

Can you embroider individual names, initials, or numbers?

Yes we can! As long as you are ordering at least six pieces, we can embroider each piece with a different name, initial, or number for an additional fee.

Should I choose embroidery or screen printing?

It depends on the look you’re going for! Embroidery creates a raised, textured finish that adds dimension to your logo, making it a great choice for professional workwear, uniforms, polos, hats, jackets, and apparel for trades and service teams. It’s also ideal for individual personalization, like adding each technician’s name to their work shirt or a player’s team number to a sports backpack.

Screen printing, on the other hand, creates a smooth, flat finish that’s great for bold graphics, vibrant artwork, smaller text, and intricate details that may be difficult to reproduce in stitching. It also offers excellent consistency across larger orders, making it a popular choice for company T-shirts, event apparel, and team gear.

Not sure which is right for your project? We’ll help you weigh the look, feel, garment, and design to find the best fit for your needs.
