Fabric labels use threads to weave the design and information at the time the label is made, or use an already made label and print the design and information on the label using special inks. Fabric labels offer more durability when washing and tend to hold up to normal wear better than other materials. Fabric labels often have a more luxurious appearance, allowing for up to eight colors.

Fabric labels are able to achieve very fine and intricate detail. This gives them a great advantage over embroidered patches, therefore fabric labels have been gaining popularity in recent years. The smaller the size of the label, the less room there is for complex artwork and lines of text. Size your artwork to the size of the label you wish to design and print it in on a sheet of paper. If the details aren’t clear, it’s an indication that it won’t stitch clearly either.
