Two tall palm silhouettes in near-black stand either side of a circular sunset badge. Inside the circle the sun sits low over a horizontal-line sky in warm orange and gold, and the bottom half shifts into peacock and regal blue ocean with those same satin-fill lines suggesting the water surface. Its a classic tropical souvenir badge composition, and honestly the industry tools digitizing keeps the texture sharp across the whole size range, which isnt always guaranteed with radial badge designs like this.
Below that circle, 'Beach Life' fills the width in chunky graffiti lettering. Sunshine yellow body, carrot-orange outline, thick black drop shadow that pushes the whole word stack forward like a varsity patch. Theres a quick swash stroke under the text to finish it off. 7 colours, 9 sizes running from 3.5x3.07 in (20810 stitches) up to 7.5x6.59 in (54193 stitches). Woven cotton or natural linen do well with a light-to-medium tearaway pulled tight in the hoop. Stretchy tees need a poly cutaway so the badge circle holds its shape after washing, dont skip that step or youll get distortion across the circular frame.
This one picks up summer traffic every year without fail. Back in june a customer told me about her beach coverup dress project, she'd stitched it across the back panel for her teenager and said people kept asking where the dress came from. If youre unsure which size to go with, the 5.5 in version sits perfectly on a tee chest or hoodie front pocket area. Stitch on black for max contrast or go natural linen for a softer coastal read. Drop a line if the files give you grief and Ill get it fixed quick.

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.
