Question
Do we recite the Shehecheyanu blessing on a tallit gadol, and when?
Answer
Yes, at the first time it is worn, and one first recites Shehecheyanu and afterward the blessing on the mitzvah.
Source
In Mishnah Berurah, siman 22, he writes to recite first the blessing over tzitzit and afterward Shehecheyanu, whereas in siman 225 he writes the opposite. One can distinguish between blessings of enjoyment and blessings over commandments; however, in practice it seems that one should act as stated above.
