Why Rich's

A small shop that treats
every order like its own

There is no account manager here and no ticket queue. You talk to Kevin, he looks at your artwork, and he tells you honestly what will stitch well and what won't. That conversation is the whole difference between embroidery that looks sharp and embroidery that looks approximate.

The shop sits on Aurora Ave N, and the work covers everything from a single monogrammed gift to a full run of jackets for a team. Same care either way.

  • Artwork reviewed before a single stitch is sewn
  • Straight answers on placement, colour and thread choice
  • Rush and last-minute requests accommodated where possible

What We Stitch

Seven ways to put your mark on it

From a single initial on a shirt cuff to a full run of embroidered company jackets — every service below is done in-house.

Custom Logo Embroidery

Your company mark stitched onto polos, caps, aprons, workwear and jackets — consistent across every garment in the run.

Best for businesses & teams

Custom Patch Creation

Morale patches, event badges, club and team patches with clean merrowed edges — iron-on, sew-on or hook-and-loop backing.

Best for clubs & events

Personalized Monogramming

Initials, names and dates on gifts, robes, towels, wedding items and keepsakes. Choose the script, thread colour and placement.

Best for gifts & personal items

Goldwork & Metal Thread

The specialty tier. Metallic threads worked into regalia, ceremonial pieces and heirloom work — slow, deliberate, and worth it.

Best for heirloom & ceremonial

DTF for Hats & Shirts

Direct-to-film transfers for full-colour artwork, gradients and photographic detail that thread alone can't reproduce.

Best for full-colour designs

Decorative & Cultural

Ornamental stitchwork and traditional regional motifs — for pieces where the embroidery itself is the point, not a logo.

Best for artistic & heritage pieces
Embroidered Greenwood Car Show patch in green and gold with decorative scrollwork

Featured Work

Greenwood Car Show

A two-colour event patch: heavy gold satin lettering on a deep green twill ground, with the shaped border and scroll flourish stitched to hold a crisp edge. Bold display type like this lives or dies on stitch density — too light and the fabric shows through, too heavy and the letterforms close up.

Event patches, club badges and team crests all go through the same process: artwork review, digitizing, a test stitch, then the run.

  • Event patch
  • Two-colour
  • Merrowed edge
  • Custom shape

How It Works

Four steps from idea to finished piece

01

Talk it through

Send your artwork or describe the idea. You'll get an honest read on what will stitch well.

02

Digitizing

Your design is converted into a stitch file — the step that decides how sharp the result looks.

03

Stitch & check

A test stitch confirms density and placement before the full run goes ahead.

04

Pick up

Collect at the Aurora Ave N shop, finished, trimmed and checked over.
