Yep you found it, the beginnings of our operation. Embroidery.
What is embroidery? It’s a design created in thread, sounds simple right? Embroidery can be extremely simple or amazingly complex when in the hands of a master.
It’s the same process invented years ago when designs would be sewn in to a piece of cloth. The practice goes as far back as the Egyptians. In the modern age, embroidery is done by computer for application onto everything from t-shirts and golf shirts to hats, patches, jackets, sweatshirts or just about anything that can fit into the machine. Heck I’ve even seen soap with an embroidered monogram! (yep no kidding)
The process to transform an image or a logo into stitches begins with digitization. A logo from the client is logo is brought into embroidery software as a background image. Then stitch by stitch that logo is transformed from a flat printed image into a 3D image made from stitches.
So now the big question – how much does it cost? Well it can be anywhere from a few dollars to hundreds of dollars. It’s like looking at two cars for sale on a lot – both have the same brand and model on them; but their costs vary by thousand of dollars. My friend it is all about the options. You want plush leather or cloth seats? CD or MP3? In-dash navigation or map pocket? Red or Blue?
Embroidery is priced per project based on two main factors – how many stitches in the design and how many pieces are being completed? A project for 36 pieces of golf shirts with a small over the heart design will be very different than having 10 jackets with a 100,000 stitches back design for a construction company.
