2. 💖 A Cozy Gift for the Coolest New Mom

Being a mom is beautiful (and exhausting). Treat her to a custom embroidered sweatshirt with “mama,” her name, or her baby’s name & birth date stitched on the sleeve or chest. Add a matching mini version for her little one to make it a duo she’ll never want to take off.

3. 👔 Father’s Day Gifts With Heart (and Thread)

Say goodbye to boring mugs and golf socks. This Father’s Day, give dad or grandpa a custom embroidered sweatshirt with his kids' or grandkids’ names on it, or go casual with a monogrammed tee or cap. Personal, wearable, and guaranteed to make him smile.

4. 👵 A Birthday Sweatshirt for Grandma (Starring Her Grandkids)

Want to bring Grandma to tears (the happy kind)? Embroider her grandkids’ names in a delicate script across a cozy crewneck. Choose thread colors that represent each child, or add a small heart or birth flower icon for a personal touch she’ll treasure.

5. 🎒 First Day of School Backpacks That Stand Out

Kick off the school year in style with a personalized backpack your little one can’t wait to wear. Embroider their name, nickname, or a cute symbol like a dinosaur, heart, or lightning bolt, so they’ll always know which bag is theirs.
