Does an embroidered garment require special care?
Yes, to some degree. Most garment fabric will fail before the embroidery. However, strong bleaches, hot water wash and very hot dryers should be avoided. Hot water and excessive dryer heat will shrink a garment but not affect the embroidery. What results is a “puckered” look. Yuck! We also recommend turning embroidered garments wrong side out to avoid possible damage form other garments, button, hooks, zippers, etc. PLEASE also check pockets for damage-causing items which might tear or bleed color.
