Embroidery & Monogramming in San Francisco, CA

4 of the 49 sewing and fabric businesses we list in San Francisco have machine embroidery, monogramming and custom stitching. Embroidery shops sit between a retail counter and a workshop: some will monogram a single towel while you wait, others only take batch orders for teams and uniforms, and the difference is rarely visible from a map listing. These are the shops that stitch — supplies, digitising and custom work — with the phone numbers to ask which kind they are.

One-off or batch changes everything. Shops set up for team and corporate work price by the piece with a minimum order, so a single monogram may cost more than you expect or be declined outright. If you need a design digitised from artwork, ask whether that's a separate fee — it usually is, and it's charged once rather than per garment.

Good to know

Can I bring my own garment to be embroidered?
Many shops accept customer-supplied garments, but not all — some only stitch blanks they source themselves, because they carry the risk if a hoop mark or a needle mistake ruins your item. Ask first, and expect a waiver or a slightly higher price when you bring your own.

What does digitising mean?
Digitising converts your logo or artwork into the stitch file the embroidery machine reads. It's skilled work done once per design and charged separately from the stitching itself, which is why the first item in an order often costs noticeably more than the rest.
