Introduction

NoorStitch embroidery files are digital products. When you download a file from our website, you are purchasing a license to use the design, not ownership of the design itself.

This page explains what you are legally allowed to do with our embroidery files, and what is strictly prohibited.

Please read carefully to ensure your use is safe, respectful, and within the license terms.

What You Are Purchasing

When you purchase or download a NoorStitch file, you receive a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use that digital design under the conditions described below.

You are not buying the copyright, trademark, or full ownership of the design — only the right to use it under specific terms.

Allowed Uses

  1. Personal Use
    You may use the embroidery file on any physical item that you stitch for yourself, as a gift, or for display. There is no limit to how many personal projects you can create.
  2. Limited Commercial Use
    You may use the file to stitch physical products and sell them in small quantities, with the following conditions:
  • You may sell up to 200 physical items per design.
  • Items must be stitched by you using your own embroidery machine.
  • Acceptable sales channels include Etsy, your personal website, or physical markets.
  • You may sell embroidered items on garments, bags, home decor, or art pieces.
  • No credit is required, but attribution is appreciated.

Forbidden Uses

You may not, under any circumstance:

  1. Resell or Share the Digital File
    You may not sell, gift, share, upload, or distribute the digital file, even if you’ve modified it.
  2. Convert and Resell in Other Formats
    You may not digitize the design into a new file format and sell or distribute it.
  3. Include the File in Bundles or Kits
    You may not use NoorStitch files as part of any digital or physical product bundle, subscription, or embroidery kit for resale.
  4. Outsource Mass Production
    You may not send the file to manufacturers or third parties to mass-produce stitched items.
  5. Use the Design for Logos or Branding
    NoorStitch designs may not be used as part of a business logo, trademark, or official branding without explicit written permission.
  6. Transfer or Sell the License
    The license is granted to you only. You may not transfer or sell your license to someone else.

Extended Licensing

If you wish to:

  • Sell more than 200 physical products per design
  • Use the design for large-scale commercial production
  • Use the design in educational, retail, or licensing projects
