{"collection":{"id":19,"title":"Name &amp; Initials","handle":"name-initials","taxonomy":"product_cat","url":"https://stitchyhome.com/product-category/name-initials/","description":"<p>The simplest personalisation and still the one most people ask for: a first name, a nickname, a monogram or three initials, stitched in the thread colour and font you pick. This category gathers every sweatshirt, hoodie and cap that can carry a name design, so you can compare garments without losing the design idea.</p>\n<p>How to choose a font: script fonts suit a single first name on the left chest; block or slab fonts suit nicknames, surnames and all-caps initials, and they stay readable at cap size. Monograms follow the traditional order on the product page (first, last, middle) with the surname initial larger in the middle; if you want the initials in plain reading order, say so in the order note. Keep names under twelve characters for a left-chest placement; longer names move to centre chest or a sleeve line, and the product page shows which placements each garment allows.</p>\n<p>Thread colour is where a name design becomes yours. Tone on tone (navy on navy, sand on sand) is quiet and modern; a contrasting ochre, white or deep red reads from a distance. If you are ordering a set for a couple or a family, keep the same font and thread across every piece and only change the names. We email a stitch proof before anything is embroidered, so spelling and layout are checked by you, not guessed by us. Stitched within 1-3 business days after approval, free tracked shipping to the US, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, and 60-day returns even on personalised pieces. If a name is misspelt on our side, the replacement is free; see the Refund Policy for how claims work.</p>\n","image":{"id":20,"src":"https://stitchyhome.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/slot-cat-tile-name-initials-placeholder.png","alt":"Close-up of a satin-stitched first name in ochre thread","width":640,"height":640},"products_count":0,"parent":null},"products":[]}
