To charge for the embroidery design, you have to check for the stitches. The number of stitches determine how much will the total price be. A common estimate of charging for embroidering work is around $1 for around 1000 stitches. For every 5000 stitches, you need to ask $5. Thus, this is the rate for just the embroidery work stitches. The final price has the element of hooping added.
