Our Story
Everything you need to bring your embroidery ideas to life.
Since 2005, home crafters and commercial shops have trusted EmbroideryDesigns.com for the largest library of machine embroidery designs online — plus the supplies, machines, and 24-hour custom digitizing to match. And behind it all is a support team that actually picks up.
Who We Are
Built by embroiderers, for embroiderers.
EmbroideryDesigns.com started in 2005 to fix a simple frustration: great embroidery designs were scattered, inconsistent, and hard to trust. We set out to build one place where anyone — from a first-time hobbyist to a commercial shop running dozens of machines — could find quality designs they could stitch with confidence.
Behind the catalog is a team with more than 25 years of hands-on digitizing experience. Since we were founded in 2005, we’ve built on that expertise to deliver files that run clean across major machines and formats—and custom digitizing with a fast turnaround
Two decades later, we've grown from a design library into a full embroidery home — tens of thousands of designs, the threads, stabilizers, machines, and patterns to bring them to life, and the people to help at every step.
