What Are The Different Types of Embroidery Techniques?

We all know that a good sportswear brand will be very proud to have its logo or design printed on its sportswear. There are lots of processes for making logos, and embroidery is one of the common processes.

The embroidery techniques can be divided into several types.

1. Flat embroidery

Flat embroidery is the most widely used embroidery. It can be divided into skip stitch embroidery, walking stitch embroidery and tatami embroidery. Walking needle embroidery is used for small text and small patterns; tatami embroidery is mainly used for larger and more detailed patterns.

2. Three-dimensional embroidery

3D embroidery is a three-dimensional pattern formed by wrapping EVA glue with embroidery thread. EVA glue is available in different thicknesses (3-5CM), hardnesses and colors.

3. Cloth embroidery

Patch embroidery is to use a patch instead of a stitch to save embroidery thread and make the pattern more vivid.

4. Sequin embroidery/bead embroidery

Beads of the same shape and size are strung together to form a rope material, and then embroidered on a flat embroidery machine with a sequin embroidery device.

5. Toothbrush embroidery

Toothbrush embroidery is a general embroidery process in which the fabric is lifted with a certain height to width ratio of the substrate (e.g. EVA), and the embroidery thread is repaired and flattened with a special tool after the embroidery process, and the substrate is removed, resulting in a toothbrush-like embroidery.

6. Towel embroidery

Towel embroidery is a three-dimensional embroidery, embroidery through a special towel machine head, the ordinary embroidery thread from the bottom of the machine hook up, winding out one coil after another to bring out the towel effect, so the name towel embroidery.

Besides the above types of embroidery, there are also cross-stitch, chain embroidery, flock embroidery and so on.
