Just thought I would pass on info/recommendation . . . I had been wanting to find someone reasonable (cost) to embroider some apparel for me. I wanted to place my logo & name on a few fleece tops, baseball cap, etc. to wear at art fairs, galleries, etc. as an ID & marketing tool.

If anyone is in the market for someone to do the same, I highly recommend Debbie Rinehart of Debznstitches.com. She was excellent to work with and her fee was extremely reasonable--especially for someone wanting a small run of items. We communicated through telephone & email to get my logo just right--- and she did.

That's useful info Joni. Thanks. We use a local, but Alaska Prices, ya know.

You might get back to her with a bit of advice. Her site includes a pop-up that Mozila blocked for me. But nonetheless she might want to look into a different site host or whatever. Popups are a total and complete turnoff, and I think will hamper her online prospects. Too many clients will never get past opening her home page no matter how great her service and prices, simply because of the popup attempt. I darn near did the same myself.

Sorry to say, I suspect I got phished at that site, Joni.

Suddenly I'm getting spammed with apparel and custom embroidery ads from all over the place. If you know the folks, better pass along a heads up about their security.

Thanks Joni,

I'm sure they'll appreciate it. As photo businesses evolve, this type of product can become an important and effective promo tool for presentations to valued customers or as awards. In the meantime, it's not a bad idea to have one or two made up for yourself with your name nice and visible. Of course, you really have to behave when anyone and everyone can see your name!

I contacted Debbie and she apologized for any problems. She is checking into the problems with her web host. She said anyone with questions or interest can contact her by phone or email.
