the overview
(1) embroidery basics
Embroidery involves creating designs by stitching threads directly onto a material. Whether done by hand or machine, it offers a raised, textured finish that adds depth and luxury to the end product.
(2) digitization
Modern embroidery, especially for commercial purposes, starts with a process called digitization. Your design or logo is converted into a digital embroidery pattern. This file instructs the embroidery machine on how to stitch the design, detailing where each stitch should go and which color thread to use.
(3) machine setup
After digitization, the material to be embroidered is placed in an embroidery hoop, ensuring it remains taut. The hoop is then set into the embroidery machine, and the appropriate colored threads are loaded.
(4) stitch n thread
The machine, following the digitized pattern, begins to stitch the design onto the material. The speed and precision of modern machines allow for detailed designs to be embroidered in relatively short amounts of time.
(5) quality control
Once the embroidery is complete, any excess backing material is trimmed away, and the quality of the stitching is checked. This ensures that the design is consistent and free of defects.
