Right Size. Right Stitch Density.

Every embroidery size has different constraints — a 2-inch patch cannot hold the same detail as a jacket back. The engine automatically adjusts stitch density, simplification, and region count based on the product you choose.

🔵
Small Patch
2" × 2" · MAX 5 REGIONS

Aggressive simplification. Bold, readable at tiny scale. Max 5 shape regions. Animals, icons, short text — nothing too fine.

Iron-on patches Bag patches
🟢
Medium Patch
4" × 4" · MORE DETAIL

More room for detail. Animals, logos, team designs with stronger character at this size. Still bold, still patch-safe.

Team patches Vest patches
🧢
Hat Front
2.5" × 1.5" · MAX 4 REGIONS

Very small and wide. Short text or a single bold icon only. Hat embroidery is the most demanding — the engine simplifies aggressively.

Baseball caps Trucker hats
🧥
Jacket Back
10" × 12" · FULL DETAIL

Large format — animals, characters, full designs with genuine detail. The biggest canvas in the embroidery engine.
