Everything is made to order in our Funchal studio, from a single item — for you or as a present.
Your pet's portrait
We redraw your dog or cat from a photo and embroider it in fine detail.
Your club or group logo
For your team, association or group of friends — the same emblem on every piece.
Custom caps
Text or a logo on the front, plus the side or back.
Patches and charms
Your design as a sew-on, iron-on or Velcro patch, or as a bag charm.
Garments from our stock
Pre-shrunk cotton t-shirts, polos, hoodies, caps and aprons, in plenty of colours and sizes — pick one and we embroider.
Special threads
Besides the polyester thread we use for everyday embroidery, we embroider with special threads on request.
Metallic thread — gold or silver
For monograms, weddings, the Christmas table and logos that call for a touch of luxury.
Glow-in-the-dark thread
Charges in the light and glows in the dark: for Halloween (31 October), themed parties and children's clothes.
Polyester thread
Our everyday thread: made for frequent washing, with colours that don't fade.

Why we recommend our garments
Available colours can vary with stock — we confirm them in the quote. We can also embroider your own items, but not every garment works: on fabric that is too thin or stretchy the embroidery can pucker, and a garment that shrinks in its first wash distorts the design. Our garments were chosen to embroider well. For your own items there is a minimum order.

★★★★★Embroidery Madeira does incredible work and is an extremely professional company. I had them embroider button down shirts with our logo for our tourism company (Emporda’ Tours) and the shirts came out beautiful. […]

★★★★★Simply impeccable work 🤍 The level of detail in the embroidery is impressive, especially the portrait of Óscar, which came out incredibly true to life and full of expression. The quality of the finish, the precision of the lettering and the combination of colours make this piece one of a kind. You can see the care and talent in every stitch. I recommend you without any doubt.

★★★★★It was a job with a lot of detail, and other companies had already turned it down for being too difficult. I was extremely happy with the result and have already received many compliments thanks to the quality of your work.
