DOWNLOADING MY FILESHow do I know my digitized file is ready?

Can I use the digitized file on any fabric?We digitize a design with the specified fabric in mind.

If the design is going on a multitude of fabrics please let us know in advance.
Can I buy a design that someone else ordered before?No, we cannot sell you any design ordered by someone else.

We charge by the stitch count but for larger volume of orders your price goes down significantly. Please call us for FREE guaranteed quotes before you order.
How much do you charge for editing?We will edit the file for FREE until you are absolutely satisfied. The only exception is if you change the artwork in which case there is a $25 edit fee.

card. We accept all major credit cards. If you would like to be set up on
our invoicing system, you can go to our web site and fill out a credit
