How Stitch Count Affects Your Embroidery Price
Why a 4-inch logo can cost more to sew than a 6-inch one — and how smart digitizing saves money.
Most embroidery shops price per 1,000 stitches. More stitches means more machine time, more thread and more chance of breaks.
Density is the hidden variable
A poorly digitized file can be 30% heavier than it needs to be. We tune density and underlay per fabric so you get full coverage without the extra stitches.
Our tip
Ask your digitizer for the stitch count before you approve a file. Ours is always listed on your order.
