Three colours and a round cat face that works on practically anything you stitch it on. The head is a smooth filled oval, two perky ears sitting on top, dot eyes with tiny white highlight stitches inside em, and 3 whisker lines fanning out on each side of the nose. Its that kinda simple illustrated look that reads clearly even at smaller sizes, and its why people keep coming back to this one.
Nine sizes covering 3.5 up through 7.5 inches wide, heights 3.41 to 7.31 inches. Stitch counts go from 4,897 on the lowest end, topping out at nine thousand four hundred and ninety four at the largest, so it stitches out pretty quick for a pet face design. Density sits at 173 which is light, the file got built in professional tools and the underlay is solid.
My niece has about 4 of her feline things with this on it now. I sell alot of these to people with indoor cats who just want to put their cats vibe onto a tote or a pillow. A customer wrote me asking if she could resize this down for a phone case, tried the 3.5 inch cat on a linen pouch first and sent the snap, looked seriously good against the natural fabric colour.
Run a tearaway underneath on woven cotton and youre sorted. The whisker lines are satin stitch so hoop nice and tight or theyll waver. Pop it on white, cream, or light grey fabric and the 3 thread colours will sing together. Skip busy patterned backgrounds unless youre going for something chaotic.

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.
