Worked up this lil fluffy chicken and she turned out kinda brilliant. Its a round, puffed-up cartoon bird with enormous google-y eyes taking up like half her face, scraggly brown feathers poking out in all directions, a tiny red comb poking up from the top and a cream white belly underneath. Shes standing on these skinny yellow legs with proper claws, looking slightly suprised at being hooped. Honestly one of those designs where the character just comes through.
There are 12 colours in this one, a bunch of brown tones plus grey, sand, white, black, and those little red and green comb details. 11 colour changes, 5 sizes from 3.5 inches at full 7.5 wide. Stitch count goes from 22,509 stitches at the smallest to 50,179 at the largest, so this is a dense piece. Drop firm cutaway cotton or denim, and topping on any terry or textured fabrics so the feather detail doesnt sink.
A customer told me she ran the large size on a plain white canvas tote and it got more compliments than anything else in her shop that week. The feather texture uses layered satin fills and the eye area carries a tight density that makes those big pupils really pop. Drop it on a navy or cream cotton and the browns read warm and farmhouse-y.
Pick the 5 inch size for kids tshirts or aprons, use the 7.5 inch on a tote front or cotton kitchen towel. Stitch slowly on the eye sections since the black outline is fine and you want the bobbin to stay tight. Pair it with a name or farm phrase for a personalised gift that actually looks like real effort went in.

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.
