An order that lives in a chat thread is easy to get wrong. The customer said “navy” but meant royal blue, the sizes changed twice, and nobody remembers if digitizing was included. A one-page order form fixes most of that, because the customer approves exactly what you are going to stitch.
What the form covers
- Customer and dates: who ordered, how to reach them, when it is due and how it is delivered.
- Garments: type, color and quantity per size.
- Design: name, placement, size, thread colors, the stitch count if you know it, whether the customer supplies the garments and whether the design needs digitizing.
- Price: price per piece × quantity, digitizing, setup, other charges, total, deposit and balance.
- Approval: the customer signs that the design, placement, colors and quantities are correct before you start.

Approval
I have reviewed the design, placement, colors and quantities. Embroidery starts after approval and deposit.
Tips for using it
- Get the approval and the deposit before you hoop the first piece. It is the simplest protection against an order that changes halfway.
- Write thread colors by number from your thread chart, not just by name.
- Agree on the size in inches or millimeters. “Small logo on the chest” means something different to every customer.
- Fill in the price section with real numbers. The pricing calculator works out the price per piece and the order total, including digitizing and setup.
