Custom Apparel Design in Whatcom County
You don't need to have it all figured out. Our in-house creative team can take you from a rough idea to production-ready artwork.
What we do:
Just need a logo cleaned up or artwork ready for your garment? That's exactly what this is for. Looking for a full brand identity, a website, or ongoing marketing? Check out our Design Partners, the standalone specialists we recommend for bigger projects.
Services include:
Apparel graphics — custom artwork designed specifically for the garment — front, back, sleeve, or all three.
Artwork cleanup & vectorization — have a logo but only in JPEG or low resolution? We'll rebuild it as a clean vector file ready for any decoration method.
Digitization for embroidery — converting your artwork into a stitch file that our embroidery machines can read. Required for all embroidery orders, included in your quote when needed.
How it works:

- Final files delivered in all formats you need: print, web, and embroidery-ready.

FAQ
Do I own the final files?
Yes. Once the project is paid, the final artwork files are yours. We'll also keep them on file for future orders.
What if I don't like the first concept?
Revision rounds are included. We don't charge extra for normal feedback and refinement. If a project takes a significant unexpected turn in direction, we'll have an honest conversation about it.
Can you work from a photo of a hand-drawn sketch?
Absolutely. A rough sketch on a napkin is a great starting point. Send it over and we'll go from there.
Do I have to use Reco for printing if you design my logo?
Nope. The files are yours to use wherever you want. That said, most clients find it easiest to just do it all in one place. And we'd be sad to see you go.
