Embroidered and embellished fabric: a sourcing guide
When sourcing embroidered fabric, specify the base fabric, thread type, stitch density, motif size and repeat, and colour placement, and approve a sample piece before bulk production.
Specify clearly
Base fabric and weight. Embroidery type and thread. Motif, size and repeat. Colourways. Placement on the cut piece. Care and wash requirements.
Approve before bulk
Embroidery is easy to misread from a picture. Approve a physical or well-rendered sample and agree tolerances. A digital render from MYTH helps align on look before the sample is stitched.
FAQ
What affects embroidery cost?
Mainly stitch count, thread, motif size and base fabric.
