Applying T-shirt embroidery Nottingham

Posted by Johny Dean on October 22nd, 2013

Embroidery is the procedure of decorating a fabric by sewing various models and designs directly on its surface. Some time ago, this method was used by schoolers to personalise their napkins, or by teenage girls to customise their handkerchiefs. Nowadays, embroidery is used as an art form, being involved in adorning dresses, skirts, T-shirts, blankets, tablecloths, basically anything that is made from fabric.

If you look for T-shirt embroidery Nottingham that would look professional on your clothing, you need to contact a professional team of embroiderers. You can either send them the T-shirt that you want to personalise or select one from the T-shirts they have for sale. In most cases, those who offer clothing personalisation services are known for selling clothing as well.

The design that you want to see on your T-shirt can be created or selected by you after visiting some inspirational websites, or it can be chosen after contacting the embroiderers. Not only do such professionals sell clothing, but they also provide creative services, like designing original patterns and models that will be embroidered on your clothing. If you choose this second path, be prepared to spend more.

After selecting the shirt and the design that will be sewn on it, you have to determine the best area where that design will be featured. Once again, you may get some recommendations from the embroiderers. Luckily, such pieces of advice are usually free. When it comes to T-shirts and T-shirt embroidery Nottingham, the best way is to place your design in the centre.

Choose the colours that will be featured by the design, making sure they match the background colour, which is the colour of the T-shirt. T-shirts that are the most recommended to customisation tasks are those that feature a single colour and no designs whatsoever. If you want to personalise a garment, the garment needs to be "pure", because, if it already presents a pattern, by adding an embroidery to it, you will only manage to load it too much.

Then, select the type of thread that will be used to sew the embroidery on your T-shirt. Also at this phase, you need to determine the thickness of the thread; most designs that are embroidered on T-shirts are made with a single or double thread. When all these are chosen, you can proceed with your order. Depending on the number of orders the embroiderers have, and also on the size of the work they have to perform for you, you may have to wait a few days until getting your precious T-shirt.

Another way of personalising T-shirts is by applying various images or texts on to them. For this, people have to contact professional T-shirt printers Nottingham and basically follow the same path as the one described above, in the case of T-shirt embroidery. The difference is that when it comes to T-shirt printers Nottingham, you get to choose from several printing, not sewing, techniques, such as screen printing, or digital transfer printing.

Would you like to have your T-shirts embroidered? By choosing this method of personalising your clothing, you can be sure that you will be the only one wearing a certain garment. This, because embroiderers can sew on your clothing any design that you create. If you look for professional T-shirt embroidery Nottingham or T-shirt printers Nottingham, contact us.
