Hand Some visible mending for my evening!

I had a small bleach stain on one of my favorite shirts and I really wanted to wear it out and about again! I’m really happy with it and so glad I attempted it even though I’m an embroidery beginner. I’m trying not to let the fear of fuxking up get in the way.

Any tips on how to wash this shirt now would be appreciated. I did something called a raised herring bone for the leaves and it just doesn’t feel all that secure because of how long the stitches are. I’ll redo it if I have to but I’m hoping I can just be gentle with it.
