Your Embroidered Logo: Heathered Shirts

It’s me, your embroidered logo. Looking for tees in a new color? Checkout all the heathered colors. There are many options like “heathered purple” or “heather sangria”. You can even choose a T-shirt in a performance fabric. Have your logo printed or embroidered in white and you’ll have fresh-looking T’s for your new business season.

Your Embroidered Logo: Simple Is Best!

Hello! It’s your soon to be embroidered polo. I peeked at your artwork. Is that the logo you’re planning for me? It’s nice. It would look great printed on T-shirts but it’s too detailed for a left-chest embroidered logo. It will be hard to read and it won’t lie flat on my fabric because the design contains too much thread. I would remove the black outlines surrounding the design elements and modify the border so it's a simple circle rather than a circle with decorative detail. Then your logo will be easier to read and it will look better on embroidered polos.

A week later...

That’s better! That simplified version of your logo will look great embroidered on me!

Your Embroidered Logo: UV Polo Upgrade

Hello! I’m an embroidered logo. I’m embroidered on a breathable polo. Tom, my person, feels cool and dry while wearing this polo.  But, he’s still concerned about the harmful UV rays that he may be exposed to. Two weeks later… Tom is doing great! He decided to try a polo with UV protection. Now I’m embroidered on a moisture-wicking polo with a UPF rating of 30. Wearing a shirt that provides extra coverage has made a difference to my person. Tom now feels more comfortable and confident when he’s outside because he has an extra layer of protection from the sun.

Your Embroidered Logo: Sharpen Up!

Hey! I’m the logo design you’re developing. Want to sharpen my look? Keep me simple, unique, memorable and appropriate. Make sure my colors are suitable for your business and will standout against whatever background (shirt color) you’ll use. Since your business caters to a younger crowd, consider using an unusual color palette to help create a fresh-looking distinctive logo.

Your Embroidered Logo: Artwork Challenges

Using an online program to design your logo? That can be a good way to visualize your design but it can lead to problems if you submit your work to your decorator.

If you use your design as artwork, mention that it is generally what you want and may need some fine tuning. Your design may look acceptable to you and it may be good. But, if you’re not accustomed to setting up artwork it may need some modifications. Often small changes like resizing an element, adjusting the spacing or adding thickness to a font can make a big difference. This way your decorator knows they can suggest improvements and your design can benefit from their experience.

Your Embroidered Logo: Logo Design For Multi-colored Fabrics

Hey! I’m a button down shirt with a subtle plaid design. I'm about to be embroidered with a business logo. But wait, the business owner is hesitant about proceeding with his order. He realizes that his design is too detailed for a plaid shirt, the colors in his logo don’t contrast well with the plaid and some of the text is too small to be readable. 

One week later...

I’m ready to be embroidered with a new logo! The business owner had his original design simplified into a bolder, single-color logo that contrasts well with my plaid fabric. Soon my fellow shirts and I will be seen with our new embroidered logo as we advertise wherever we are worn!
