Clean reindeer face, antlers spread wide at the top, friendly expression below. Its not trying to be a detailed wildlife portrait, its more like the graphic version of a reindeer that reads instantly without needing much inspection. The antlers carry a good portion of the visual weight here, branching out in that classic spread that fills the upper part and gives it presence even at smaller sizes.
Four colours, under 14,000 stitches even at the full 5.38 inch size. Its the quicker stitch design by design, and honestly thats the point. One customer ordered this one specifically because she wanted something she could stitch in an evening for a last-minute christmas gift, and she pulled it off. Suprised me to recieve that note because Ive always assumed people plan christmas projects earlier than they actually do. The smaller stitch count is a real feature here, not a compromise, and its part of why people keep coming back to it.
Five sizes from 2.51 inches wide at the smallest up to 5.38 inches. The tall format runs 3.51 to 7.51 inches high, so the antlers always have room to breathe above the face. Satin fill on the face and satin columns on the antler branches. Density at 345 means its going to stitch on almost any fabric without drama or thread breaks mid-run.
Try it on red, cream, oatmeal, navy or forest green. Works equally well on kids and adult garments. Use tearaway on woven fabrics, cutaway on jersey or fleece. Hoop flat and keep decent tension and itll stitch cleanly on cotton tshirts without needing topping.
What people are using this design for
A starting point. The design works for plenty more than just this list, this is what folks have stitched it onto most.
- Kids Christmas tshirt or jumperThe medium size on a red or green kids tshirt makes a simple christmas piece that works for the whole december school run.
- Adult holiday sweatshirt accentOn a grey or cream adult sweatshirt the graphic clean style suits people who want festive without it being over the top.
- Christmas stocking frontThe 3.5-inch placement on stocking front works cleanly with the tall portrait proportions fitting the stocking shape naturally.
- Personalised gift bag or toteOn a canvas tote tied with ribbon it makes an easy christmas gift bag that the person receiving it will probably reuse.
- Holiday pyjama patch or chest logoOn the chest of fleece pyjamas the 3.5 in face is small enough to look like a badge rather than a centrepiece.
- Quick last-minute christmas giftBecause the stitch count is manageable this is the one to reach for when you need a finished piece by the weekend.
- Festive pillow or cushion coverOn a plain linen cushion in a wooden hoop the antler spread gives it enough presence for a simple seasonal decor piece.

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.
