Tethered Hearts Heavy-weight T-shirt
The "Tethered Hearts" t-shirt design is a heartfelt tribute to Sierra, a girl born with half a heart who lived a profound 10.5 months before passing away. The golden heart at the center symbolizes her “heart of gold,” with dripping gold evoking the image of a bleeding heart—beautiful yet touched by sorrow. Surrounding the heart are vibrant phoenix wings, representing rebirth, resilience, and the eternal nature of love, all in shades of purple, which is the color of Sierra’s birthstone. These wings also resemble angel wings, highlighting her spiritual ascension. The Tiger Lilies were chosen for their deep personal significance, as they were used to honor Sierra at her funeral, adding a deeply personal and loving touch. The title “Tethered Hearts” reflects the unbreakable bond between Sierra and her family, emphasizing the ongoing connection that transcends her physical presence. The accompanying quote underscores the enduring emotional and spiritual ties that can only be felt, not seen.
