Its all in one colour but it dosent feel plain at all. Bright aqua satin lettering, arched at the top in that chunky mixed-caps script, then the words "I set you apart" sweep down big and bold in flowing cursive. A hand-drawn heart outline sits right in the centre, kind of looped and scribbly in the best way, and a long straight arrow cuts across underneath it, fletching on the left, pointed right. Below all that, "Jeremiah 1:5" and a name in matching script. Five sizes total, so you can fit it on a newborn onesie or stretch it out to the largest 7.5 inch across a full quilt block. Stitch counts run up to around 20,000 on the larger sizes, which sounds alot but the underlay keeps everything flat and the satin columns stay crisp on cotton and fleece alike.

Pop this on a baby gift bag and its immediately a keepsake rather than just another present. A mum I worked with last month ordered it specifically for Bennett Adam, name included at the bottom, and she hooped it on ivory linen for a nursery wall piece. Cut a heavy-weight cutaway stabiliser when you run this on jersey or knit fabrics because the lettering is dense enough that a tear-away wont hold the registration steady. For canvas tote bags the 5 inch sits perfectly centred without crowding the handles. Use a topping on towelling if you want those satin columns reading clean through the terry loops. Pair it with navy or charcoal thread for something a bit more subtle, though honestly the original aqua on cream cotton is the version people keep coming back to.

Ping me quick if the tie-offs come loose.

What people are using this design for

A starting point. The design works for plenty more than just this list, this is what folks have stitched it onto most.

  • Baby shower giftA natural canvas tote fits the 5 inch just right, centered low enough to clear the handles and leave room for the text to breathe.
  • Nursery wall hoopA nursery wall hoop in ivory linen with the aqua lettering looks like a proper framed piece, not craft-fair decor.
  • Baptism keepsakeBaptism gowns work great with the smallest 3.5 inch version stitched above the hem.
  • Personalised canvas totePersonalised canvas totes are what most buyers are ordering these days, name in the script at the bottom.
  • Faith-themed pillowFleece pillow covers in cream or sage let the aqua blue really pop without needing any extra backing.
  • Newborn onesieA onesie in white cotton with the 4 inch version is genuinely one of the nicest newborn gifts you can make.
  • Quilt block centreQuilt block centres in cotton twill hold the directional satin stitching perfectly without any distortion.

Behind every stitch

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.
