Which is better embroidery or print
Embroidery offers a more classic and high-quality look, as it involves stitching the design directly into the fabric. It also tends to be more durable and long-lasting, making it a great option for items that will be frequently washed or worn. On the other hand, print offers more flexibility in terms of design options and selection of colors. It comes down to what style you are going for. We offer both services, so feel free to reach out to us and discuss your needs!

Can you wash embroidered shirts
Yes, embroidered shirts can be washed. In general, it is recommended to turn the shirt inside out before washing to protect the embroidery. Use a mild detergent and wash the shirt on a gentle cycle with cold water. Avoid using bleach or any harsh chemicals that can damage the fabric. After washing, lay the shirt flat to dry or hang it up.

Does embroidery weaken fabric
Embroidery does not necessarily weaken fabric. The impact on fabric strength depends on various factors such as the type of fabric, the weight of the thread, and the stitching technique used. In general, embroidery adds decorative stitching to fabric without significantly compromising its strength or durability. However, if excessive force or tension is applied during the embroidery process, it could potentially weaken the fabric or cause it to fray. Hence, it's best to leave embroidering to the pros. Show us your ideas, and we'll bring them to life - quality guaranteed.

What is the difference between screen printing and embroidery
The main difference lies in the technique used to create the design on a fabric. Screen printing involves using a mesh screen to transfer ink onto the fabric. A stencil is created on the screen, and the ink is forced through the open areas of the stencil onto the fabric below. This method is great for creating designs with multiple colors and intricate details.
On the other hand, embroidery involves stitching a design directly onto the fabric using thread and a needle. This technique can create a more textured and three-dimensional look, and is often used for creating logos or monograms on clothing items. While screen printing is generally more cost-effective for large quantities, embroidery offers a more durable and high-end finish.
