What is the big deal with embroidered baby clothes? It is just a bunch of extra thread thrown onto the outfit after all, but it is what the colorful thread does which makes the beauty shine.

It is quite amazing how you can take a very simple looking, very plain little denim dress for a small baby and suddenly turn it into a colorful, magical outfit with just a little added thread. The art of embroidering can transform almost any outfit into something beautiful. Imagine the little denim dress with an added lady bug, butterfly, hummingbird, and your baby’s name. The dress went from plain and boring to colorful, fun, and personalized.

Embroidered baby clothes can be purchased pre-made with colorful critters, designs, and toys stitched right into the outfit. While this is the cheapest method to get embroidered items it lacks originality and personalization.

When you want to have real fun with embroidered clothes you can choose to order clothes with a personalized touch. You can have your newborns name, birth date, birth weight, and length all embroidered right into an outfit. The outfit can be enjoyed for a few months and then put away as a great keepsake for yourself.

Maybe your family has a family crest. You can have the crest embroidered right into a jacket, shirt, or other outfit to get your baby started the right way in the family. They can start sporting the family crest today instead of in a few years.

There is another fun advantage to having your baby’s name embroidered on many of their clothing items. They do not disappear at the daycare centers. Parents are always amazed how often their extra clothing ends up changing during the course of a week or two. The daycare staff is busy changing a couple babies or children at the same time and clothes change bags. When you have embroidered baby clothes with your baby’s name they do not go to the wrong bag, and even if they do, they come back. Instead of musical chairs it is musical clothes.

There is one small disadvantage to having your child’s name embroidered in the clothes. The clothes are now theirs forever. Instead of becoming hand me downs to the next baby they are unique to them. You will have to weigh the advantages and disadvantages to you.

The most fun of course with embroidered baby clothes comes in all the beauty you can add. Simple clothes become elaborate. Hats can have logos added. Even those tiny little gloves can have initials embroidered into them if you wish.

Embroidery is one of the best ways to customize clothes because it lasts through wash after wash, and looks great for the life of the clothes. Embroidery can be very inexpensive, and you might even decide to invest in an inexpensive embroidery machine for yourself. Your baby’s clothes can look very special, like no other baby in the world.
