Its three lil ghosts who clearly got the christmas memo. Left ghost wears a big fat red bow and shes clutching a tiny gift wrapped in red. The middle ghost has a holly-berry crown sitting crooked on her head with a strand of christmas fairy lights looped all the way round her body, the red bulbs and bright green leaves wrapped up like she walked into the tree. Right ghost is rocking reindeer antlers in brick red, a matching chunky scarf knotted at the neck, and a round red nose. All three share the same round bead eyes and that classic wobbly ghost silhouette.
Thick black satin column outlines hold every shape firm. White directional stitching across the ghost bodies gives em texture so they dont sit flat. Bright red and lime green accessories pop against the white base, even on cream or oat coloured fabric. Five colours total and density runs up to 19,528 stitches at the largest 7.51 width. Smallest comes in at 10,822 stitches on the 4.51-inch drop, which is manageable on most home machines.
I get a alot of orders for this one from christmas costume designers and holiday market stall holders. One customer last november ordered it for matching ghost family tees her kids could wear both halloween AND christmas day. She said theyd refused to take em off either night. And theres something about that crossover season this design just nails perfectly.
Try oatmeal cotton or champagne linen for maximum contrast. The thick outlines carry the whole design so you dont need fancy thread colours. Pull the full sweep across pillow covers or a chest panel or kitchen towel edge aswell. Skip anything darker than a light grey because the white ghost bodies wont read. Use a cutaway stabiliser under knit or jersey at the bigger sizes and hoop tight since the trio runs tall and narrow.

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.
