About the service
I make custom letterman/university style name chevrons — with puffy chenille letters (chenille yarn), dense satin numbers, and achievement emblems. If you need a large letter on a college jacket, a chevron with graduation year, captain's star, or emblem for a sports rank, club, or hobby, I'll develop a design and embroider a separate patch that is then sewn or heat-applied to the jacket — this service is about the chevron itself, not embroidery of an existing garment.
The work starts with a brief discussion of size, colors, and text, after which I send a digital mock-up for approval — embroidery starts only after your "yes". For letters I use real chenille yarn, which gives that fluffy volumetric effect; for outlines and small details — twill and dense satin stitch; the backing I make from felt or twill so the chevron holds its shape on its own, without a jacket. I finish the edge with an overlock seam or dense satin binding so the threads don't fray after washing and years of wear, and upon request I add a heat-adhesive backing — then the chevron can be heat-sealed in addition to sewing.
What's included in the service:
— one custom name chevron of agreed size — letters in chenille or satin emblem
— digital mock-up for approval before embroidery begins
— edge processing with overlock or satin stitch
— backing of your choice: for sewing or heat application
— one revision to color or text before starting work
