the premium touch.

Embroidery stitches your logo directly into the fabric with thread. It reads as quality from across the room, which is why it's the standard for company polos, quarter-zips, jackets, caps, and bags for businesses across Ankeny and the Des Moines metro. It doesn't crack, fade, or peel. It just lasts.

one piece minimum.

Unlike screen printing, embroidery has no real minimum. Order one jacket or one hundred. There's a one-time $35 setup fee to digitize your logo, and after that it's on file with us forever.

the techniques.

flat embroidery.

The classic: a tight, slightly raised weave stitched into the garment. We digitize every design in-house so we control where each stitch hits.

3d puff embroidery.

A layer of foam under the thread pops the design off the garment for a tactile, dramatic look. Especially popular on caps and team gear. Probably helps you win more games.

applique.

Fabric stitched onto the garment with an embroidered border, like you see on baseball jerseys and retro sweatshirts. Try glitter material for a dance or cheer stunner, go patch-style on hats, or leave edges raw for a frayed look.

mixed media.

Screen printing plus embroidery in one multi-layered design, or embroidery with rhinestones for a platinum-level look. Precision work, which is convenient, because so are we.

the details.

Our embroidery technicians color-match thread to existing logos on request, and you're always welcome to choose thread colors yourself. Hats, thick knits, and technical fabrics each have quirks; we'll flag anything before we stitch. Every job gets a proof approval first.

common questions.

Is there a minimum order for embroidery?

No. Embroidery is a one-piece minimum, so you can order a single jacket or hat.

What does embroidery setup cost?

There's a one-time $35 setup fee to digitize your logo. Once it's digitized, it stays on file for all future orders.

Can you embroider items I already own?

Yes. We welcome customer-supplied garments. We ask you to fill out a short waiver first, and our staff will happily double-check your items before we run them.

What is 3D or puff embroidery?

3D (puff) embroidery places a layer of foam under the thread so the design pops off the garment with a raised, tactile look. It's especially popular on caps and team apparel. We also offer applique (stitched-on fabric with an embroidered border) and mixed-media designs that combine embroidery with screen printing or rhinestones.

Can you embroider hats?

Yes, though hats are the trickiest canvas. Full-fabric caps can often take side embroidery, trucker caps with plastic mesh cannot, and small panels may require simplifying fine details. Bring your hat in and we'll tell you exactly what's possible.
