BOSTON CHAINSTITCHING SERVICES

We use vintage, hand guided machines to customize clothing and accessories. Check out our online customization store or visit the physical shop in Somerville's Union Square.

HOLIDAYS 2026

Hey folks, we're trying to save ourselves a little bit this year and not be working like Santa's Elves the week before Christmas. With that in mind:

  • The last day to drop off any holiday related chainstitch/custom projects is November 15th.  
  • In-store monograms will happen for as long as we can into the season, whenever one of us is in the shop to do them.

You can read more about getting something chainstitched here.

Custom embroidery on your garment or ours

We carry a selection of high quality blanks in the shop, or you can bring in your own to get embroidered.

Visit us in person!

We're located in Somerville's Bow Market, a community of independent shops, restaurants and bars. You can find us on the upper level of the mezzanine, right next to Side Quest Books. Stick around and watch while we do some embroidery, or feel free to take a lap or grab a drink.
