Pulled together this little reindeer head one afternoon when alot of customers were asking for a softer cuter rudolph option. Its got a round tan face, that big bright red nose you expect, and antlers branching up in chocolate brown. Pink inner ears, tiny black eyes that look closed and content, simple nostril dot. Thats it, totally kid-friendly.
The face uses a tan satin fill with directional stitching so the fur reads as smooth not flat. Antlers are darker brown done in two tones so theres a bit of depth where they branch. The red nose sits densly filled, almost dome-like on the fabric. Im honestly happy with how round and chubby the cheeks ended up looking, and Ive been getting compliments on it.
Made it back in september after my niece kept asking for a rudolph shirt she could wear to school. Realy it works for any kids christmas project, baby gifts, family pjs, stocking fronts. People have been ordering it for grandkid gifts too which is sweet, and Ive seen photos of it on toddler bibs that made me smile.
Comes in 5 sizes from 2.72 up to 5.83 inches wide. Smallest fits great on a beanie patch or onesie chest, biggest works for a cotton shirt front or a small tote. Stitches happy on cotton, fleece, jersey knit and felt.
Skip very loose weaves because the dense red nose can pucker. Run light cutaway under jersey or any stretch knit, tearaway works on woven cotton. Holler if the file gives you grief and Ill sort it.

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.
