Jacket back digitizing for large logos

When this line applies

The $45 line covers full backs, dense art, and any design over 20,000 stitches. That includes large club and crew backs, detailed mascots, and big company logos on work jackets and hoodies.

How large fills are planned

• Density. A big fill sewn at small-logo density gets heavy and stiff. Large areas are opened up where they can be, so the back still drapes.
• Stitch direction. Fill angles are varied between sections to cut down on pull and to give the design some shape.
• Fabric. Fleece and knits need more underlay and a little less density. Heavy twill and canvas hold more. Nylon shells pucker easily and need light, careful fills. Tell us the garment and we plan for it.
• Sew order. Background first, detail last, with as few trims and jumps as the design allows.

Gradients and photo-real art

Thread does not blend like ink. Gradients, soft shadows, and photo-style art have to be simplified into bands of color that can actually be stitched. We will tell you what the simplified version looks like before we punch it. If the art is rough or low resolution, a vector cleanup first often helps.

Turnaround

Overnight, the same as every order: send it by the end of your day (ET), sew it in the morning. Rush is available if the complete order is in by 10am ET.

What to send

• Artwork (vector or PDF is best for large designs)
• Finished width, and height if it matters
• Garment and fabric
• Machine format and the largest hoop or frame you can use

See the full price menu. Real sew-outs will be posted on the samples page.
