Embroidery is a great option for custom products such as polos, jackets, hats and corporate t-shirts/ shirts. This is not printing in the conventional sense but a standard way of decorating a T-Shirt. It offers an elevated look to logos because the thread is sewn directly onto each product. To make sure your embroidered product looks its best, iLogo has compiled a list of embroidery design tips to keep in mind:
iLogo’s Top 5 Embroidery Design Tips
Keep your design simple
Overly complicated designs and logos will appear crowded, or even overly simplistic once translated for stitching within the product's design area. Consider removing extra words, dates, phone numbers, and even colors to clean up your design.Select the right product to embroider
Some fabrics take to thread better than others, like a polo or jackets. Keep in mind that embroidered products require a backing to stabilize and maintain the life of your product. Think of it like this: the sturdier the fabric, the thinner the backing will be, the thinner the fabric, the thicker the backing.Your font choice matters
When it comes to embroidery ,Make sure the font you choose is embroidery-friendly like stitched handwritten fonts and cross stitch cursive fonts are known to be. The simpler your font is the better.Avoid halftones and gradients
Unlike ink, thread comes in strands of individual colors and can’t be mixed. Instead of gradients, solid edges best help your embroidery pop and give it a crisp, more polished look. If halftones or gradients are integral to your design, you can go for screen printing instead.Don’t go too big
When you think of embroidery, you might think of the classic chest pocket design, and that’s for a reason—it’s the perfect size for embroidery. The bigger a design is, the less likely it is to achieve the polished look embroidered products are known for. Large embroidered sections also weigh down product and impact the comfort and fit. So when thinking of embroidery, remember, less is more. The recommended size of embroidery designs is 4-5 inches wide. Embroideries on t-shirts and shirts larger than that might cause the fabric to bunch around the stitches.Need some help perfecting your design for embroidery? iLogo artists are here to help bring your great idea to life with your own custom products.

We had a fantastic experience working with iLogo! They went above and beyond to deliver customised T-shirts for our event on very short notice, and the quality of both the fabric and the print was excellent. The team was responsive, helpful, and made sure everything was ready well in time . One small suggestion for future orders – it would be great to have a wider range of larger sizes available and some of the darker tshirts ran colour. But overall, we were really happy with the service and would definitely recommend them for any custom apparel needs. Looking forward to working together again!
I had a fantastic experience with i-Logo for customized t-shirts made for my Squadron (Indian Air Force). The quality of the t-shirts exceeded my expectations, with a great finish and attention to detail. The embroidery was exactly as per my specifications. Moreover, the pricing was very competitive, making it excellent value for money. I would highly recommend i-Logo to anyone looking for quality customized apparel at a great price.
The quality is great, but they never deliver on promised time as on the website. You always have to follow a lot, and still you'll get the goods a week later than promised timeline. Ordered with them about 4 times, and same story every time.
Your T shirts were excellent, you did a excellent job. The IAF logo and the tri color lines with white background T shirt a perfect match. Thanks for the nice design, fabric and sizes.
We recently purchased t-shirts for our choir group, Faith & Harmony, and we couldn't be happier with the quality! The fabric is incredibly comfortable and breathable, making it perfect for long performances and rehearsals. Everyone in the group loved how soft and lightweight the material feels, ensuring ease of movement while we sing. The print quality is equally impressive—vivid colors and sharp detailing that truly stand out. Even after several washes, the print has retained its vibrancy, which is a big plus. The fit was just right for all sizes, giving a professional and unified look to our choir. Overall, these t-shirts have exceeded our expectations, blending comfort, quality, and style seamlessly. We’d highly recommend iLogo to any group looking for custom apparel!
I recently ordered a few sets of custom t-shirts from iLogo, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the entire experience. From start to finish, their service was impeccable. The ordering process was incredibly smooth, with a user-friendly interface that made customizing my designs a breeze. I was impressed by the variety of options available, allowing me to create exactly what I had in mind. What truly sets them apart is their regular and personal interaction throughout the process. They provided well-structured clarifications and sought approval at each step, ensuring every design parameter was locked in exactly as I wanted. This level of communication gave me great confidence in the final product. The quality of the t-shirts is outstanding. The fabric feels luxurious and durable, and the embroidery and printing is vibrant and precise. Despite the high quality and personalised service, the prices were very competitive. Plus, they managed to deliver my order in a very short time, which was a pleasant surprise. Overall, I highly recommend them for anyone looking for top-notch custom t-shirts. Their combination of excellent customer service, high-quality products, and competitive pricing makes them a standout choice.
