Embroidered Wildflower Tee

Wildflower and whiskey, rendered thread by thread. The Embroidered Wildflower tee grows a stitched bloom with more texture than any print could ever give it — petals you can actually trace with a fingertip, like the flower pressed itself into the cotton and decided to stay. It is the difference between a photo of a garden and the garden.

The details

• Hand-feel embroidery — raised stitched thread, not ink (see the close-up shot)
• Comfort Colors 1717 base: heavyweight, garment-dyed, wonderfully soft
• 100% ring-spun US cotton at a substantial 6.1 oz
• Pre-shrunk with a relaxed unisex fit that drapes easy
• Double-needle stitched seams for season after season
• Stitched to order in the USA

True to size; go one size up for the oversized fit that makes the little bloom look hand-sewn onto a vintage find. It dresses up with a skirt and boots, dresses down with cutoffs, and never looks like it is trying — which is the entire trick. As a gift, embroidery reads as heirloom rather than merch: right for the friend who presses flowers in books and remembers everyone's birthday without an app.

Grandmothers understood this technology first. The embroidered handkerchief, the stitched pillowcase, the initials on everything worth keeping — thread was how you marked the difference between an object and a belonging. Machines print a thousand flowers a minute now, but a stitched one still stops people mid-sentence, because some part of everybody remembers what needlework used to mean: somebody decided this should last. This little bloom carries that whole inheritance, one petal at a time.

Care: machine wash cold inside-out, hang dry, and keep irons away from the petals. Stitched flowers never wilt, but they do appreciate gentle handling.
