Your Embroidered Logo: Will a Picture Work?

Your former embroiderer retired and you"re unable to obtain your existing embroidery machine file. You want to order shirts from a new embroiderer but, you don't have a digital file of your logo because your original embroiderer created your logo without using artwork.  Wondering if a photograph of your existing shirts will work?

Possibly. If your design is very simple (just text for example) and you can take a clear picture from directly above then a photograph might serve as a template for your embroidery set-up. But, if your design is more detailed and your image is unclear or distorted then it may not work for your set-up. In that case it might be better to have artwork created from a photograph.  Then you can spend time carefully proofing and revising your artwork before continuing with your embroidery set-up.
