Tips for the best result
- Use the cleanest version of your logo: the original vector or a large PNG.
- Keep lettering at least 5 mm tall at the final size, or simplify small taglines.
- Fewer colors sew faster and look sharper. Merge near-identical shades in the digitizer.

Logo to embroidery questions
The quickest way to see what it does with your artwork is to try it. It's free and takes about a minute.
What size should a logo be for a shirt?
A left chest logo is usually 3 to 4 inches (75–100 mm) wide. Set the width in the digitizer and it scales the design and keeps the proportions.
Can I digitize a logo with small text?
Yes, but text under about 5 mm tall is hard to read in thread. The design check warns you when lettering is too fine and suggests a larger size.
Is it OK to use any logo?
Only digitize logos you own or have permission to use. Brand logos are usually trademarked.
Is this embroidery digitizer really free?
Yes. You can digitize and download as many designs as you like, in every format, without signing up. Everything runs in your browser, so there are no server costs to pass on.
Is my image uploaded to a server?
No. Your image is processed entirely on your own device in your web browser and is never uploaded. If you sign in and save a design, only the finished stitch file, a small preview and its thread colors are stored in your account, never the original image.
