How an Embroidery Digitizing Service Can Help You Play Office Santa

The holiday season almost always puts everyone in a good mood, especially employees who are looking forward to some time off after a long year of hard work. However, for those part of the Human Resource department it can be an unnerving time, since it is also that time of year when employees expect you to show them your appreciation by way of gifts or freebies. Therefore, before your staff heads home for the holidays, it becomes imperative for you to leave them with a gift or memento that not only shows them your appreciation, but is also easy on the company’s pocket. Hiring an embroidery digitizing service can help you solve part of this problem.

An embroidery digitizing service provider helps you recreate your company’s logo or other artwork into machine readable code that helps put gorgeous patterns on fabric in no time. This leaves you with a world of choices to gift your employees before the holidays. The next logical question to ask now would be how? By employing an embroidery digitizing service firm, you get the ability to place your company’s brand name or logo onto a variety of fabrics that can prove to be excellent gifts for the soon approaching Christmas or New Year. These gift items can be inclusive of Christmas stockings, mufflers, socks, gloves, hats, woolen caps, jerseys and much more. And, with such a large variety of gift options to choose from, you not only have the chance to offer presents that fit into the organization’s budget, but also hand out extras that can be shared by their family members.

Also, by employing an embroidery digitizing service before the beginning of the holiday season, you stand a chance to play office Santa, while promoting your brand. Distributing free goodies with your logos stitched onto them, this being taken care of by your embroidery digitizing service provider, helps you enjoy the best of both worlds, wherein you not only gain favor with your staff, but also help your brand make it into multiple households that too at the fraction of the cost of traditional TV or billboard advertising.

Keen Analysis – One of the most important characteristics to look for in an embroidery digitizer, sharp analytical skills are what separate the amateurs from the professionals. With due analysis a digitizer is not only able to understand the software he/she is working with, but also know how the codes will be executed by the embroidery machine. In order to produce a top-quality embroidered piece, the digitizer must understand the synergies of both the software as well as the industrial machines.

Foresight – Yet another prized quality in experienced embroidery digitizers, foresight not only helps the professional create a code that produces the desired results effectively, but also efficiently. An experienced digitizer will always have a suggestion on how to make a design more “embroidery-friendly” by making a few changes to it after it is first presented for analysis. This ability to foresee also comes in handy to create an efficient digitized file that minimizes production run time.

Troubleshooting – An embroidery digitiser should have remarkable troubleshooting skills that help him/her create digitized files that eliminate production run errors. Taking into account a variety of factors including make of the fabric, thread strength, stitch pattern, etc., a professional embroidery digitizer will always aim at creating a file that runs smoothly after due quality checks and appropriate troubleshooting.

Kinds of Stitches Considered While Digitizing Embroidery

While a number of stitching patterns and techniques are used while digitizing embroidery in order to get you the desired results, we have enlisted below some of the most common types of stitches that are used to turn your design into a beautiful, embroidered piece.

The Running Stitch or Walk Stitch – This happens to be one of the three most widely used stitch patterns in embroidery and thus is considered while digitizing embroidery. The running stitch is created by making a single stitch between two points repeatedly. It is used to create underlays, outlines as well as fine detailing.

The Satin Stitch or Column Stitch – This stitch is created by making a diagonal pattern of stitches that go from one side of an area to the other, essentially making a zigzag pattern. One could also say that a closely placed zigzag stitch is used to create the satin stitch. The second most popular stitch in embroidery, it is used for outlining as well as lettering purposes. While digitizing embroidery, the satin stitch is kept within a range of 1.5 – 8 mm, since any wider could lead to snags.

The Fill Stitch or Tatami Stitch
– This happens to be the third most widely used stitch when embroidery digitizing, since it can be customized to create different types of patterns or fills by altering the length, angle and even direction of the stitching pattern. It is created by a series of running stitches that are used to cover or fill in large areas of the design.

The Tie Off or Lock Stitch – This stitching pattern is quite essential to Express Digitizing, since it is used to keep the embroidery from unraveling once the piece is complete, especially satin stitches wider than 1.2 mm. These lock stitches consist of a series of 3-4 stitches, approximately 1mm or less in size. They are used either right before a trim, or following a thread trim at the start of sewing again.

Make That Logo Last Longer by Investing in Embroidery Digitizing Services

Every firm seeks to reinstate the faith of its employees, time and again, to make them feel valued and a special part of the organization. For this, companies arrange for annual days, movie days and other expensive employee engagement programs. However, usually it is the simple things that count for any employer to earn that special place amongst its employees. For instance; having a uniform in the organization does wonders for the self esteem of employees, even as it makes them the brand ambassadors of that particular firm. A small logo on the uniform that speaks of the organization is of great worth to employees, making them feel a sense of belonging and much valued. And, this is where embroidery digitizing services come into the picture.

More often than not, companies choose to get their logos printed onto the fabric. While this seems to be a quick solution, these logos tend to fade away with time. Also, in other cases companies choose to get the logos embossed onto uniforms. But the downside of this type of printing is that although it sticks to the fabric for a longer time, the color starts to chip off even as the texture of the fabric continues to look swell. Choosing to invest in an embroidery digitizing service helps overcome both these drawbacks.

Embroidery digitizing service as a process, converts simple designs into digital files, which can be easily read by embroidery machines and is then stitched onto different types of fabrics. An embroidery digitizing service is a viable option and proves to be a sound investment, since it not only makes the logo last longer, but also allows the design to be stitched onto any kind of merchandise.

Taking your Fashion House Places with a Dedicated Embroidery Digitizer

Every season brings with it a whole new range of fresh fashion trends. With the western fashion market having a huge influence on the orient, every year one gets to sport varied kinds of trends. However, if we talk about one fashion trend that has maintained its worth down the ages and has continued to earn a coveted space in wardrobes all across the globe, it is embroidery. Be it scarves, overcoats, hats, sweaters or even handbags, elegant embroidery is something that has been a thing of fancy for generations of mothers, grandmothers and daughters alike. With this trend attaining a global stature, the embroidery digitizer has also gained prime importance in the fashion market.

An embroidery digitizer is responsible for converting your designs into digitized formats, which are then read by smart embroidery machines that stitch the artwork onto the fabric. This method is highly convenient and serves a great deal of purposes for fashion houses and apparel brands. While you may find a plethora of embroidery digitizers operating in a singular capacity, you would benefit from collaborating with a digitization company that hosts a team of embroidery digitizers, so that you can benefit from the collective experience and professional touch that comes with having a dedicated professional allocated for your work. There can also be times when a particular design is not embroidery friendly and cannot be stitched onto a particular fabric.

The Embroidery Digitizer Factsheet

At Express Digitising, we make sure that you get the best possible digitization service in the industry. However, that is made possible only with the help of a talented team of embroidery digitizers that work behind the scenes to make your vision come alive on fabric. While software skills and a keen understanding of embroidery practices is what everyone primarily looks for before hiring an embroidery digitizer, we go ahead to ensure the following traits as well for our team members:
  • Analysis: Digitization not only uses software, but is also affected by the dynamics of thread, stitch and fabric. We make sure that the embroidery digitizer hired by us has the right analytical skills to effectively use the synergies of software and machine in order to produce the desired results.
  • Investigation: We only hire such embroidery digitizers who have a knack for research and investigation, as we believe to get the right output a digitizer will have to go through a number of stitch styles, font types, color combinations and more before he can begin replicating your creation in code.
  • Foresight: An embroidery digitizer should be able to have enough foresight, so that he can pre-conceive the consequences of a particular change, rather than always rely on the time-consuming trial and error method. He should also have enough experience to be able to look at a design and judge whether it is embroidery-friendly or not, and what kind of changes can help it retain its identity, while making it more stitchable.
  • Troubleshoot: One of the major responsibilities of an Embroidery Digitiser is to be quick with issue resolutions. We ensure that each of our talented team members work with a solution-oriented approach, so that they can replicate your artwork to the tee, while ensuring seamless production runs later.

Why Outsourcing Your Embroidery Digitizing Makes Sense?

Growth and ambition are the only two constants that ensure the survival of a business in a competitive economy like todays. Given the amount of time and energy it takes to keep up growth initiatives, it makes one wish that there’d be more than 24 hours in a day to accomplish tasks. However, since that’s something unlikely to happen, it only makes sense to outsource a few specialized tasks such as embroidery digitizing to a professional agency that can deliver high quality output at a much lower cost than it would take to run the same in-house.

Cost saving is one of the foremost motivators that has made our clients take the decision to outsource their Digitizing Embroidery. It is not only due to our competitive pricing, but also since they end up saving on infrastructure costs, costs related to acquiring talent, retaining and nurturing this talent, as well as other auxiliary costs like paying for initial and subsequent upgrades of digitization software. Also, having professional embroidery digitizing service partner on call gives you the flexibility to deal with varying workloads and automatically downsize or upgrade according to your needs, without worrying much about how those numbers would look on your annual report.

The second most important factor that makes it worth your while to outsource the embroidery digitizing part of your business is saving time. Since running an additional department takes a considerable time investment, from delegating tasks to supervising productivity and everything in between, by outsourcing it you could utilize such free time to strategize and work on moving ahead. You could use this time to rather concentrate on your core business and let professional embroidery digitizing service provider handle the rest. Also, needless to say, since you will be entrusting a professional company in the field of embroidery digitizing, you can also expect to receive output that ranks high on quality and is delivered well within the framework of your timelines.

Digitising Embroidery and Tattoo Art: A Comparison

We believe that embroidery has always been a way of preserving memories and self expression much like any other artistic endeavor such as getting tattoos. Both arts have given communities a way of preserving elements symbolic of their culture and passing them down to generations. Just like tattoo parlors have become the next step to elders of the tribe imprinting the young, digitising embroidery is the next step to what we have been used to seeing our grandmothers labor over.

Much like getting a tattoo, digitising embroidery involves a process. Just like you would walk over to a tattoo artist with your vision and ask how it can be best brought to life on your body, similarly a digitising embroidery professional or digitizer is the person who lets you know about the “sewability” of your design.

The nest step involves the collaboration. In case your artwork is deemed embroidery-friendly, our team of artists begins developing the design as a digital file using embroidery software. However, just as a tattoo artist may at times come back with modifications to help deliver a design that is both executable and yet, evokes the same emotion as the original; in the process of digitising embroidery, our digitizers may get back to you with an alternate that would be stitch-friendly, without losing out on the essence of your design. The aim being to deliver an end product that takes your artwork or philosophy and puts it onto a completely different medium to convey the message in a manner that is admired by one and all.

While in terms of execution the similarities between tattoo art and digitising embroidery seem to end here, the essence remains the same. With clients coming to us with requests for left chest, portrait and full back designs, we could not help but draw a comparison. However, choosing embroidery to preserve your memories or values for life does prove to be an absolutely painless way of self-expression. And, not to mention, the benefit of flat rates makes digitising embroidery all the more charming.

The requests from individuals are not just limited to portraits or special logos that they would like to sport, but rather they have stretched out to include a whole range of articles for:

Home Decoration – Those who love to add a touch of warmth to their personal space now have their sights set on the professional embroidery digitiser for help.

Also, the trend of requests has now shifted from women’s apparel to kid’s clothing, since embroidery proves to be a much safer option as compared to any other embellishments that could harm young ones.

Express Digitizing Your Corporate Casuals

Every business strives to create its own identity in the market, and the corporate is no different. One of the best ways to create a sense of belonging for your employees is to make them wear the colors of your company, or rather the logo. Just as teams representing different states and countries dress in the same jerseys, it instills a great sense of pride for your employees to be wearing their company’s designs.

All these factors combined makes embroidery the most favored means of putting corporate logos onto a whole range of corporate casuals.

This means to get your logo in a form readable by an embroidery machine for express sewing.

Creating a Niche for Your Label with a Personal Embroidery Digitiser


The world of fashion is probably as unpredictable as the weather. What is “in” this season can be an absolute no-no the next. With trends changing at the speed of lightning, it can be quite a tedious task to create a niche for your label and especially maintain it thereafter. In such unsteady circumstances, time becomes of the essence if you need to make your collection a hit. For this, you need a reliable process that gets your collection from the tailoring bench to the racks in no time.

When delicate embroidery or artwork makes up a major part of your collection, it becomes necessary to support it with an embroidery digitiser who can honor your request in the least possible time, without compromising on quality. Having a personal embroidery digitiser becomes absolutely essential, as with strict timelines there remains no scope for error. Most apparel companies and fashion designers thus choose to work with a single, trusted embroidery digitiser, who understands the nature of their industry and can step up to the challenge.

At Express Digitising, we understand the specific needs of the fashion and apparel industry. This is why we have a sizable team of skilled embroidery digitisers, who can handle your request at the earliest. With thorough professionals recreating your designs, we assure you of high quality embroidery pieces each time. Our team of talented professionals not only ensures that the design is perfectly stitched, but also that the quality of the fabric is preserved in the process.

We employ only the best embroidery digitisers in the industry, who are then trained to not only understand the intricacies of the software, but also the execution mechanism of the embroidery machine. This is done to ensure minimum thread breakage and fully optimize end processes, so that you have an end result that matches your vision. We take the time to understand your particular needs, so that over a period of time our embroidery digitisers know from intuition how to best handle your request and even surpass expectations.

A Peek into the Intricate World of Digitising Embroidery


At Express Digitising, we do not treat digitising embroidery as just another task; we rather look at it as an art. However, treating it like a work of art does not mean that we disregard the process that helps bring your creations to life on time. For this, over a period of time we have created a method that helps digitising embroidery retain its artistic appeal for us, while ensuring customer satisfaction.

From when you place the order – Once we receive your order for digitising embroidery, whether via email or order form, it is immediately dispatched to the order checking unit. The specific function of our order checking unit is to understand your requirement and clarify any doubts before commencing work on the order, so that there are minimum holdups later.

To Getting It Right – Once a confirmation is received, our dedicated team assigns the job to the appropriate team that matches the specifications on your digitising embroidery order. The appropriate digitisers then work to not only materialize your request, but also do so within the stipulated time, while upholding the highest quality standards. During the execution, they don many hats like that of a software expert, machinery specialist, visionary and troubleshooter in order to get you the results you expect and more.

And, Ensuring A Perfect Match – At Express Digitising, it is not enough for us to just get the job done, rather we strive to get it done perfectly. This is why we support our digitising embroidery processes with two rounds of quality checks. The first round ensures that the job is done to match your specifications, while the second round ensures that the design is production-ready. Before delivering the final product to you, we make sure that it does not require any extra trims, or have an excessive stitch count.

Last but not the least, the files with the digitized design is then handed over to you in the format of your choice. However, our job of digitising embroidery does not end here, as we offer 24/7 online support should you need any trouble shooting.
