How Shirt Embroidery Works

All over the world for hundreds of years, there have been people using embroidery for all kinds of reasons. Clothing, decoration, artwork, to stand out, whatever the reason for it, though until recently it was always done by hand. For this reason, it took time, and embroidery could be expensive. Today, corporate shirt printing does not need to just stop there. Now you can get printers who have digital embroidery machinery so you can design or choose a corporate logo and have it embroidered onto T-shirts and other garments. Here is a closer look at the modem marvel of digital embroidery.

Ordering embroidered logos in the past

Not too many years ago if you wanted embroidered logos as part of your company branding on things like merchandise, giveaways, and uniforms, for example, there were a few steps to go through. You would need a decent drawing of the lettering or imaging you wanted to be done for your corporate shirt embroidery. This meant either having a designer on staff or hiring someone to design it for you. Then you would have to find a physical shop that handled embroidered logos and mail that design to them, or have it delivered to them. Then you would have to wait a number of days to hear from them about your order, and then possibly weeks before the design you wanted was delivered to you. This is because it was all done by hand.
