Some gifts get unwrapped, admired and forgotten by New Year's. Others get worn every cozy weekend until next Christmas. This year, we put together a gift guide full of the second kind: embroidered sweatshirts with real texture you can feel — fabric appliqué letters, fluffy chenille yarn and detailed floral stitching — many of them personalized with a name.
Every piece is machine-embroidered and made to order in our studio in Vietnam, so each one is stitched just for the person you're gifting.
For Mama, Nana & Gigi
Mama "tis the season" Patchwork Appliqué Sweatshirt
Four holiday prints — snowflakes, holly, argyle and buffalo check — each cut into a letter and outlined with a raised satin stitch, finished with "tis the season" in script. Swap "MAMA" for NANA, GIGI, MIMI or any name to make it hers. It's the gift she'll wear on Christmas morning and in every family photo after.
For the friend who starts decorating in November
"Merry" Yarn Mockneck Sweatshirt
Big, fluffy looped-yarn letters on a relaxed mockneck. Choose bold block "MERRY" or the flowing cursive "Merry" — both stand out from across the room at any holiday party.
Chenille Bow Christmas Tree Crewneck
A soft pink bow on top of a playful looping chenille tree. Sweet, cozy and made for hot cocoa season.
For the dog mom
DOG mama Floral Embroidered Sweatshirt
Letters packed with tiny embroidered roses, daisies and leaves, with a floral paw print standing in for the "O." A gift for the friend whose camera roll is 90% her dog.
For the one whose faith comes first
Gingham Lace Cross Sweatshirt
A navy gingham appliqué cross framed in white scalloped lace. Soft, simple and meaningful — perfect for Sunday mornings, Bible study or a thoughtful stocking surprise.
For the game-day fan
Custom Team Name Chenille Sweatshirt
Bowl season is just getting started. Choose your team name and colors, and we'll stitch it in thick, fluffy chenille script. Great for the student, the proud sports mom or the alum who never misses a kickoff.
Gifting tips
- Order early. Each sweatshirt is made to order. Production takes [X–Y] business days, plus [A–B] business days shipping to the US. Order by [DATE] for Christmas delivery.
- Not sure of their size? Our fits are relaxed and unisex. Check the size chart on each product page, and size up for a cozy oversized look.
- Double-check the name. Personalized pieces are stitched exactly as typed, so give the spelling one more look before checkout.
- Keep it looking new. Wash inside out on cold, tumble dry low or hang dry, and don't iron directly on the embroidery.
