Best way I can describe this one, its got that proper campfire glow. The lower portion is the campfire itself: stacked log shapes in dark brown with flame forms rising above in oranges, reds and a hint of yellow at the tips. The camping quote sits above or wraps around the fire in solid lettering. Five colours in the sequence, stitch count from 8,899 at 2.77 inches up to 21,898 at the full 6.45 by 7.01 inch size.
my professional tool set the density at 484, which gives the satin flame shapes that slight sheen that makes them look warm even in thread form. The satin direction across the flames runs outward from the base, same direction as real fire would move, so the texture reinforces the subject. Layer a heavy cutaway stabiliser for fleece or canvas flannel, at 21,898 stitches on the large size youll want the backing to hold firmly. Hoop your cap flat in a proper cap frame for the 2.77 inch version; it sits cleanly in the front panel without touching the brim. Add topping film on any brushed fleece surface so the flame outlines dont sink into the pile. Skip the tearaway entirely for this one, cutaway only, the stitch count demands it.
A customer who runs a camping-themed Etsy shop last summer bought this and used it on canvas hats, and she said it was one of her best sellers through the season. Honestly any customer in the outdoors or camping niche will want it year round. Flannel shirts, canvas hats, fleece pullovers, jacket chest patches, it just looks right on all of them.

- Embroider the 6.45 inch size onto the back yoke of a flannel shirtBack yoke placement on a flannel shirt at 6.45 inches spans the full yoke width neatly.
- Add to a canvas tote bag as a camping trip or adventure giftCanvas tote needs firm cutaway at this stitch count so the campfire shapes stay dimensional.
- Use on a fleece pullover chest panel for a cosy autumn lookFleece pullover needs a heavy stabiliser and a wash-away topping film for the lettering.
- Hoop onto a denim jacket breast pocket for a casual outdoor patchDenim chest pocket at the small 3.5 looks like a proper patch rather than a print.
- Stitch onto a canvas apron for a camp kitchen or barbecue settingCanvas apron is one of the best fabrics for this density, no distortion, great colour payoff.

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.
