This is the most stitch-heavy design in this group and its worth being upfront about that. At the full 7.51-inch size youre looking at 69,851 stitches and a density of 1,456, this is a substantial piece. At the smaller 3.51 x 2.99 inch size its 31,058. Either way its a complex run that needs a machine that can handle density and a stabiliser setup that takes it seriously. 12 colour stops: forest green truck body, cocoa reindeer, scarlet bow, cream snow accents, black outlines, chrome highlights, and more.
Built in professional embroidery software and every detail is mapped, the truck grille has column stitching, the reindeer has directional satin on the body and antlers, the tree fill uses a chevron angle to suggest foliage texture. A customer who runs a craft fair booth grabbed the 5-inch version for a framed hoop display last November and it looked genuinely gorgeous mounted on the wall. Dont run this on dark fabric, the lighter cream and chrome tones in the 12-colour palette get lost.
Use a heavy cutaway stabiliser, no exceptions. Lay your threads out in order before you start, 12 stops means 12 chances for a colour mix-up mid-run. Slow the machine down on the antler stitching. Check bobbin levels before you begin because youre not going to want to stop and reload at 40,000 stitches in. Run a test swatch first if this is your first time with a stitch count this high.
5 sizes from 3.51 x 2.99 to 7.51 x 6.39 inches. Pop it on aprons, canvas totes, quilting squares, and wall-hanging pieces. Best results on white pique apron fabric or heavyweight natural cotton, all 12 colours read clearly against a neutral ground.
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.
- White pique aprons for Christmas kitchen giftsWhite pique apron fabric is a natural fit, all 12 colours read clearly against the neutral white ground.
- Large canvas totes for festive seasonal shoppingA customer asked about the 5-inch size for a 6-inch hoop display piece and it looked beautiful mounted and framed.
- Framed embroidery hoop wall art for holiday decorLarge canvas totes need a full cutaway backing, the high-density fill pulls at lighter stabilisers.
- Quilting squares for Christmas throw blanketsQuilting squares can be pre-embroidered and then assembled, use medium cutaway so the seam allowance stays flat.
- Heavy cotton tea towels with vintage truck themeHeavy cotton tea towels take density well, stitch the 5-inch version in the centre for a balanced placement.
- Holiday craft show centrepiece itemsCraft show centrepieces should be the 7 inch jumbo on a white base, hooped tight to prevent hoop burn.
- Custom Christmas pillow panels for the living roomPillow panels need firm hooping and a full-coverage cutaway, the antler details are fine-line and need stability.

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.
