Four characters standing in a row like they lined up for a photo. Santas on one end, big red coat, white beard trim, that classic hat. Next to him theres a snowman with a top hat and a scarf. Then a lil elf in green with those pointy shoes. And the reindeer at the end with antlers and a big goofy grin. Each one has their own thing going on but they all belong together as a bunch.
Ten colours run through the whole piece and theyre stacked into a tall portrait layout rather than spread wide, so the proportions sit at 1.63 inches wide and 3.5 inches tall on the smallest size and 3.49 by 7.5 on the biggest. Thats a pretty narrow tower shape, which honestly makes it work beautifully on shirt fronts, bag panels and book covers. Density sits around 1435 stitches per inch, meaning the character detail stays crisp even at the petite 3.5.
Stitch counts go from 17k on the small end up to 37.5k on the largest. Digitised in embroidery software so the colour separations between Santas coat and the elfs tunic are clean and theres no bleed between the white snowman body and the background. I been running designs like this on jersey knits and they need a firm stabiliser to keep that tall column from shifting on the hoop.
Pair cutaway under knits and fleece. Tear-away works on canvas or denim. Pop a small size on a gift tag patch or a childs hat brim. Stitch the 7-inch version on a christmas-morning fleece throw for a gift exchange item that people actually keep. Pair with plain red, green or navy backgrounds and those 10 colours really come through clean.
Had a bunch of people order this one for family matching pyjama sets around the christmas break. One customer stitched nine of them in different sizes for her whole crew. Should your colour stops misfire just drop me a line and Ill get it sorted.

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.
