Our Chenille Embroidery Workflow

If combined with felt, patches are pre-cut for placement.
Looped yarns loaded; tension adjusted for fabric + loop type.
Yarn is stitched into loops over the area following the path and height rules.
Threads are trimmed, loops set; backing sealed or layered.
Alignment, loop consistency, and contrast are tested before packaging.

FAQs About Chenille Embroidery for Apparel
How does chenille embroidery differ from standard embroidery?
Chenille uses yarn loops to create a raised, fuzzy texture, which is different from a flat or satin stitch.
What fabrics are best for chenille embroidery?
Wool, twill, cotton blends, and any thick, structured fabric.
Will the yarn loops flatten or fall apart after washing?
No. If heat-sealed properly, chenille will remain fluffy through multiple washes.
Can chenille embroidery be combined with other types of embroidery?
Yes – we often layer it with a felt backing or satin stitch.
Can I choose the height or texture of the yarn loops?
Yes. We offer yarn loop height control and texture treatments.
What is the minimum order quantity for chenille embroidery?
100+ pieces per single style/color, depending on complexity and garment type.
