Cat Mama in two colours across eleven sizes, more size options than most cat designs in this shop, and deliberately so because people put it everywhere. The cat sits in a classic tucked-pose with the MAMA lettering bold and confident right underneath or beside it, depending on the size. Not cute in a babyish way. More like a feline-obsessed person who fully owns the label.
Smallest footprint is 1.47 by 2.51 inches at 4,472 stitches, which fits on a badge or a pocket without getting crowded. The biggest runs 4.37 by 7.51 inches at 15,766 stitches, which works on a full tote front panel or a sweatshirt chest. Density sits at 480 so its genuinely light, meaning the pet design stays soft on cotton jersey and doesnt board up.
I get messages from cat-loving customers on this pretty regularly. Back in february a buyer ordered it on 6 cream linen totes as birthday gifts for a group of friends and asked me if I could suggest a thread colour that wasnt black or white. I told her to try a dusty rose, kinda warm but not loud, and she came back with photos. Really nice on linen actually.
Best on cotton, linen, or jersey, 2 colours means quick runtime and easy colour changes if ya want to match a colour scheme. Tearaway stabiliser is fine on most wovens at this density. Cutaway if ya want extra durability for totes and bags. Skip topping on smooth cotton. And the lettering is satin-stitched by my main software so it reads sharp at every size, which is always the worry with text designs on knit.
Send me a chat note message if the colours read off on ya fabric and ill swap em for ya version.

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.
