Two cowboy boots stacked on top of each other, a wide-brim hat sitting right across the top boot. Thats the whole composition and honestly it works better than I expected. The hat has this great sideways tilt to it, with a big red bow and holly leaves at the brim where theyd normally put a feather or band. Star cutouts run up the boot shafts, and Christmas lights droop down the front in that loose, just-thrown-on way that looks more natural than a perfect spiral.
My sister picked up the 5.51 inch size last November for a holiday tote she was making her friend who barrel races. Said it went on beautifully with cutaway stabiliser, no puckering at the hat brim edge at all. The satin stitch outlines are chunky enough that they read well even on darker denim if you run white underlay first. 4 thread colors total so you wont spend the whole afternoon changing bobbins.
Stitch count tops out at 23,883 for the largest of the 5 sizes, which runs about 45 minutes on most home machines. my usual software handled the digitising and the density is even throughout, so the brim edge doesnt bunch up the way cheaper designs tend to.
Stitch this on a tea towel for a western Christmas kitchen set, pop it on a canvas bag for a country girl who collects western decor, or use the 3.51 inch size on a stocking cuff where space is tight. Run firm cutaway behind denim and the red bow threads work up clean on any standard 40wt poly. Holler if you have any questions and Ill get back to you same day.

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.
