Congratulations - and they call it work? I would imagine they are paying you a retainer? Some sort of salary. or is the job to do embroidery for their items to sell ie you being a factory hand and they pay a monthly salary?or you to embroider for the public and you charge per item?

Think I'd charge by the hooping first say $5.00 to $8.00 and then charge by design rather than charge $1.00/1000 stitches as some designs have so many stitches you'd be charging yourself out of a job. You might want to see how the store wants to charge since you'll be using their machine/thread?

When I gave you a flower I noticed you are new to Cute and I just wanted to say Welcome. Glad to have you and hope to see you often.

Welcome to Cute and congratulations on your new job. I'm the wrong one to answer your pricing question ~ I seem to never ask enough.

Welcome to Cute. I charge 1.00 per 1000 stitches. But then that does depend on how many stitches. I just finished 6 coats with logo on outer jacket and zip out vest and person's name only on the outer jacket. I charged $170.00 for the job. My customer was quite pleased with the price.
