Four words stacked in a solid block: 'Celebrating' across the top in white, 'History' underneath in red, 'Culture' in gold, 'Excellence' at the base in green. Down the left side, the word 'Black' runs vertically in large outlined letters. On the right edge there are kinda short horizontal stripe marks stacked like a tally, which adds a lil graphic texture without pulling focus from the words. The whole thing sits on a plain field with black as the assumed fabric background, and it realy reads like something youd see on a protest banner made permanent.
Five colours and 5 sizes from 3.51 to 7.51 inches wide. Digitising was done in my usual software so each word block stitches cleanly in its own colour stop. Stitch count goes from 12,645 at the small end to 26,111 at the large end. The density is kinda relaxed at 589, so it sits flat on medium-weight cotton without puckering, which I was seriously happy about when the test run came back clean.
One customer who runs the gift shop at a black cultural heritage museum in the south ordered the 7.51-inch last october for a staff uniform tee run. She said customers kept asking where the shirts were sold after seeing em on the floor staff. Stitch it on black cotton tee, black canvas tote, or a black denim jacket and the 4-colour word stack lands exactly right. Use a tearaway behind woven fabric and cutaway on jersey or fleece. Reach out to me if the stitch file gives any trouble and ill sort it fast.

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.
