How it works
- 1. Send your logo with the form below: choose “FREE first design”, add the size and your machine brand or file format
- 2. I digitize it by hand, with the right stitch types, underlay and density for your fabric, never auto-traced
- 3. You get the file by email, usually within 12–24 hours, with a preview, stitch count and colour sheet
- 4. Test it on your machine. If something needs adjusting, small edits are included
What's included and what isn't

Why I offer a free first design
StitchNova is a small studio run by me, Naveed Ahmed, in Karachi. The best way to show how a hand-built file sews is to let you run one on your own machine. If the file sews clean, I hope you'll come back for the next one.
Good to know: the flat to cap guide explains why a cap file is built differently from a left chest file, so tell me where the logo will go.
Frequently asked questions
Is the first design really free?
Yes. New clients get one flat left chest or cap logo, up to 4 inches, digitized free. You don't pay anything and you don't enter any payment details.
What is included in the free design?
One hand-digitized embroidery file in your machine format (for example DST, PES or EMB), a design preview with the stitch count and a colour sheet. Small edits are included until it sews right.
Which designs are not part of the free trial?
Jacket backs, designs larger than 4 inches, 3D puff, patches, vector conversion and logo design are not part of the free trial. You can still get a fixed quote for those.
Can I get more than one free design?
The offer is one free design per new client or business. After that, left chest and cap logos start at $10.
Can I claim the free design on Fiverr or Upwork?
No. Fiverr and Upwork orders always go through their own payment systems, so the free design is only available through the form on this website or by email.
How fast will I get my free file?
Usually within 12–24 hours after I have your artwork, size and machine format.
