Heres a cartoon baby elephant sitting front-facing with oversized round ears spread out wide, big round eyes with long curled eyelashes, and a pink scarf with fringed tassels wrapped around the lil neck. The scarf has a fine pinstripe pattern running through it and the tassels dangle off one side, looks like the elephants been bundled up against a cool morning. Three soft greys shade the body, pale pink fills the inner ears, and a deeper rose pink dots each cheek as a soft blush mark.
After getting set up the scarf detail and the eyelash lines were the abit tricky parts to digitise cleanly at the small 3.3 inch end. Density sits at 1,135 which is dense, so the file builds up real solid on the body fill, the heavy black outline holds the whole silhouette together at every size. Theres 8 colours total. Honestly Im taken aback by how often this design shows up in baby shower bundles. A customer last march grabbed the mid-large size for a stack of muslin swaddles for a friends gender-reveal party. Shes since reordered twice.
Stitch count runs from 21,404 at the 3.3 inch size to 60,162 at the 7.06 inch full hoop. The orientation is tall, the elephants sitting pose pushes the height as far as 7.5 inches at the largest hoop, so theres a centred bib placement or a front panel on a baby blanket covered. The industry software digitising lays a directional fill across the head and ears so the soft round shapes read as real volume. Pure cuteness.
Run this on white cotton, cream muslin, pale mint or pale lemon yellow, light grey fleece, or pastel pink jersey. Lay a medium cutaway under any knit fabric or lightweight muslin, the dense body fill will pucker without it. Skip jersey at the smallest 3.3 inch size, the tassel detail will distort on stretch fabric. Im honest with that, its a real solid run otherwise.
Dm me if you want the scarf colour swapped to blue or sage for a boy nursery, I dont charge for custom thread maps on nursery orders.

About the artist
Reyazul Masud Riham, hand-drawing every design on this site
Every design on Re Embroidery is hand-digitized by one person. Each file gets sketched, color-matched, and stitch-tested on real fabric before it earns a place in the shop. No team. No auto-conversion from images. Just slow, deliberate work, sometimes three or four days per design.
That's the joy I work for.
The hard part is finding my designs re-uploaded and resold elsewhere. So when you buy from Re Embroidery, you're paying one real person for the file you're about to download. That matters.
