Our History

Illian Crafts and Design, Inc. was formed in 2004 with inspiration and a bit of luck!  Illian Crafts and Design, Inc. is a private corporation that was derived from a simple idea.  Back in December of 2003, Jackie and Jon Illian (our founders and current CEO and CFO), had the idea to create new staff shirts for Central Lutheran School (CLS) in St. Paul, MN.  They created a sample shirt using Jackie’s small home embroidery machine and she took it to school to see what the response would be.  To their great surprise, the demand was so high for spiritwear at CLS, they could barely keep up with the orders.  By the time summer of 2004 came around, Illian Crafts and Design, Inc. was born. It was at this same time that they chose to upgrade their embroidery machinery and computer systems to state-of-the-art Melco Amaya brand industrial machinery.  This helps Illian Crafts keep pace with new demand, while providing excellent quality products.

Formerly based in Minnesota, Illian Crafts and Design is now based in Cookeville, Tennessee.  Although this move shifted our base of operations far away from where our company was created, very little has changed from our customer's perspective.  This is because Illian Crafts and Design is an internet based company, which allows us to serve customers from across the country and around the world.  This "internet-based presence" allows us to bring our customers the highest quality at the lowest possible price, which is not something that you will find at a "brick-and-mortar" embroidery store at the mall.  No overhead = low, low prices.  Just do the math, calculate the difference between their prices and our prices, and you will see what we mean.

Currently, Illian Crafts and Design works with schools, churches, and businesses from all across the country and around the world, sharing our quality products and services with organizations who want excellent quality products and service at a reasonable price.  We produce custom embroidered and screen printed garments, but we also produce crafts, custom embroidered artwork, and even things like Friendship Bracelets and specially crafted clothes hangers.
