Standard delivery is 2 to 4 hours from artwork approval for most designs including caps, left chest logos, 3D puff, and small lettering. Jacket back and applique designs take 4 to 8 hours depending on complexity. Rush delivery in 1 to 2 hours is available at no extra cost; just note RUSH on your order.

All 20+ embroidery file formats are included at no extra charge: DST for Tajima and most commercial machines, PES for Brother and Babylock, JEF for Janome, VP3 for Husqvarna Viking, EXP for Melco and Bernina, TAP for Happy, HUS for older Husqvarna, and XXX for Singer. The EMB editable Wilcom source file is also included with every order.

No. Every file is built 100% manually in Wilcom V9 and E2 by one of our 38 professional digitizers. We never use Wilcom's auto-digitizing features, auto-font generation, or batch processing tools on any order at any price. Manual digitizing produces production-ready files that run correctly on the first sew-out.

Upload your artwork in any format: JPG, PNG, PDF, AI, or EPS. Tell us your machine brand and model, the design placement (cap front, left chest, jacket back, etc.), and the size in inches. If you have a specific fabric type such as a structured cap or softshell jacket, mention it so we can adjust density and underlay settings correctly.

No, as long as the request falls within our 7-day technical revision window. If a delivered file has a verifiable structural or digitizing error that deviates from your original artwork and the instructions you gave at checkout, such as density, underlay, stitch direction or lettering readability problems, we revise it free. Send your request to info@sassydigitizing.com within seven (7) calendar days of delivery. Requests made after the 7-day window are treated as new orders and may be subject to additional editing fees.

Yes. Cap digitizing is our most common order. Caps require specialized curved-surface compensation settings that standard flat-garment digitizing does not apply. We set correct underlay for structured vs. unstructured caps, reduce maximum stitch length to 4mm to prevent floating stitches on the curved panel, and apply pull compensation for cap fabric stretch. The variable rate is $15-$25 for most cap designs.

DST is a universal stitch output file: it contains the finished stitch coordinates and color-change commands and is read directly by most commercial embroidery machines. EMB is Wilcom's editable project file that contains the design as adjustable embroidery objects. EMB is only useful if you have Wilcom software installed. We include both with every order at no extra cost.

Brother and Babylock machines use the PES format. Brother's multi-needle PR series also reads DST. Tell us your machine model when you order and we send the exact format it needs, along with DST, EMB and every other format at no extra cost.

A left chest logo is usually 3 to 4 inches wide. A structured cap front is usually up to about 2.25 inches tall and 4 to 5 inches wide, depending on the cap profile. Send us the size you plan to sew and we digitize for that exact size, because density and underlay change with size.

Yes. We digitize for shops across the USA, UK, Canada and Australia. In the UK and Australia the service is usually called embroidery digitising; the files, formats, flat rates and 2 to 4 hour turnaround are the same in every country, and there are no extra fees for international orders.

Yes. Use our 50% off first order offer: send one qualifying design at a reduced price and sew the finished file on your own machine before you commit to more orders.

We work with embroidery shops and clothing brands across the US, UK, Canada and Australia entirely online, so 'near me' isn't a limit. You get the same 2-4 hour turnaround and $15-$25 pricing no matter where you're located, with files delivered straight to your inbox.

Most left chest and cap logos cost $15 to $25. Jacket backs are $20 to $75 depending on size and detail, and large or complex designs are priced at $1 per 1,000 stitches with a $7 minimum. There are no setup fees, and every format is included.

You don't need a local digitizer. Upload your logo online and a digitizer builds your file within 2 to 4 hours, wherever your shop is. We work with embroidery shops across the USA, Canada, the UK and Australia.

Custom digitizing means a person builds every stitch path for your fabric and garment. Auto digitizing lets software guess, which often causes thread breaks, puckering and unreadable small text. All our files are custom, hand-built in Wilcom V9 and E2.
