So Buffalo by Design

Embroidery shops keep local style rooted in something handmade. So Buffalo by Design fits right into that tradition, offering custom stitching that turns plain fabric into something with a little more character. It’s the kind of place where logos, monograms, and small-batch designs get the attention they deserve.

The shop sits at 2120 Elmwood Ave, a stretch of road where Buffalo’s small businesses have quietly held their own. Neighbors stop by for patches, team uniforms, or gifts that feel personal without being fussy. The work here leans practical—think durable stitches on workwear, bags, and caps—so the pieces actually last.

If you’ve got a project in mind, a quick call to (716) 361-9897 can sort out details before you drop off fabric. They handle everything from screen-printed transfers to direct embroidery, so whether it’s a single hat or a couple dozen polos, the process stays simple. No need to overcomplicate it; just bring what you’ve got and let them figure out the rest.

For directions, the map at this link will get you there without guesswork. Buffalo’s Elmwood Village has enough foot traffic to make parking a little tight, but the side streets usually have space if you circle once or twice.
