WHAT IS EMBROIDERY?
The evolution of embroidery from a hand-craft to a computerised process has made
this value-added decorating method affordable for just about everyone.
The embroidery process begins with digitising, the act of 'translating' a graphic
design into stitches. There are three basic types of embroidery stitches. Satin
or column stitches are the most commonly used. There is a limit both to the minimum
and maximum width of these types of stitches. Extremely thin lines or letters cannot
utilise the side-to-side sewing movement required of these stitches. Overly wide
lines or blocks of color also limit the use of satin stitches because the thread
begins to 'hang down' like a roman shade.
Wider lines and blocks of color utilise a fill stitch, a pattern of smaller stitches
which cover the desired area. This gives you the quality you want but does tend
to increase the stitch count required by the design.
Finally, extremely thin lines are sewn using a running stitch, much like the ones
used to baste a hem. These are not quality stitches and really should only be used
to define one area from another.
Embroidery sewing charges are based on the number of stitches in a design since
stitches equal machine time. The number of colours in an embroidery designs are
not a cost factor.
