This stacked cat design I digitised last june, customer asked specifically for a tall narrow shape that could fit down the side of a long apron, kinda hard ask but it worked. The composition runs 10.51 inches tall but only 3.14 wide at the biggest, so it tucks into long thin spaces other designs cant fit.
Thirteen colours, 11 sizes. Stitch counts kick off at 16882 small and climb up to 36162 on the largest. Density 1096 is high, real high actually, but thats because each cat needs solid fur fill to read clean against the kinda complex coffee mug shapes. Hoop a heavy cutaway. Slow your machine to 600 spm. Use an 11 sharps point, none of that universal stuff for this one. Its got room for personalising letters underneath. theres space for personalising text underneath.
Id a customising customer order this last week for her cat cafe in oregon, she wanted the stack running along the side of staff aprons. Sent me a photo of em all wearing the aprons behind the espresso bar. Made my day very. Sizes range from 1.65 to 3.14 inches wide and 13 thread colours total.
Use this design on tall apron sides, tea towel hems, vertical wall hoop art, long pillow bolsters, cardigan front plackets, table runner edges, coffee bar towel sets. Skip thin knits without proper cutaway, the high density tunnels. Pick warm cream or oat-coloured base fabrics, the coffee tones pop hardest against neutral backgrounds.
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.
- Tall apron side panel designOregon cat-cafe staff apron side panel was the original brief, my customer sent a photo of the team behind the espresso bar wearing them.
- Tea towel hem vertical accentCotton tea-towel hem vertical accent for a coffee-bar gift set, the tall stack fits where horizontal designs would crowd a hem line.
- Wall hoop framed art pieceReads as charming-niche rather than busy, which a third-wave coffee roaster told me after the order shipped eight linen wall hoops for the cafe.
- Long pillow bolster end designhelps the design come through on a cotton bolster pillow end, fusible cutaway plus slow speed handles the dense stacked composition cleanly.
- Cardigan front placket borderKnit cardigan front placket border for a barista who wanted off-duty cat-and-coffee gear, ballpoint needle keeps the tall design stable.
- Cotton table runner edge trimLinen table-runner edge for a friends home coffee-corner setup, 60-weight cotton thread gives vintage softness against linen weave.
- Coffee bar towel set centreBrushed cotton coffee-bar towel for a customers home espresso station, poly thread sheen plays against the morning sun on the counter.

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.
