Images redrawn as clean vector art
PNG and JPG logos are redrawn by AI as crisp shapes before stitching, so edges come out smooth, not as jagged pixels.
Features
Everything StitchFile does for your design
From a logo on your phone to a file your machine sews well. Here's each step, and what we do for you at every one.
1Upload
From any logo to a stitch file
Drop in an SVG, PNG or JPG. We make the decisions a professional digitizer would, for the size you'll sew it at.
Background removed for you
A plain background around your logo is left as fabric instead of being stitched as a solid block. Want a filled patch? Keep it with one click.
Stitched the way a digitizer would
Lines and lettering get satin columns that follow the stroke, larger areas get fill, and everything sits on underlay with pull compensation so shapes keep their size.
Cleaned up for your size
A logo that looks fine on screen can fall apart at 55 mm. We fix it for your size: hair-thin lines thickened, tiny holes opened, small lettering enlarged.
Tuned for your fabric
Pick woven, T-shirt knit, polo piqué, denim or towel. Density, pull compensation and the smallest text change with it, and we tell you which stabiliser to use.
2Preview
See it before you sew it
Every preview is drawn from the real machine file, stitch by stitch, so what you see is what your machine sews.
Watch it sew
Press play and watch the needle stitch your design colour by colour, in the order your machine will.
Zoom into the stitches
The close-up shows the busiest part of your design at thread level, so you can check lettering and edges before you buy.
See it on a product
Your design on a T-shirt, woven shirt, cap and jersey at its real size, on light or dark fabric. If it's too big for that garment, we say so.
An honest fit check
Every design gets a plain-words rating: great, fair or poor for embroidery, with the reasons. If it won't stitch well, you know before you pay.
3EditNew
Make it yours, free
Change the design right on the preview page. Each edit makes a new preview in about 20 seconds, and you can go back to any earlier version.
Remove partsNew
Tap anything you don't want stitched, like a tagline, a background shape or a tiny detail, or drag across to pick several. The rest is stitched without it.
Fewer coloursNew
Slide to the number of threads you want. Look-alike colours merge first, so you get fewer thread changes and a quicker sew.
Change coloursNew
Swap any colour for one of 64 Brother threads to match your brand, or the threads you already have.
Clean up with AINew
Shading, gradients or fuzzy edges? AI redraws your image as bold, flat embroidery art with cleaner lettering. It takes about a minute, and your original stays.
