The mouse is this round, chubby cartoon character with a dusty pink body, grey rounded ears, and a little cream belly patch that sits right in the middle of the torso. Theres a butter yellow bow or ribbon detail near the top of the head, plus small colour pops on the cheeks and tail tip. Its genuinely colourful in a way thats hard to describe until you see it stitched, with 11 separate thread colours that each do a specific small job rather than just painting the same area twice.
I got a buyer last month who stitched the 5-inch file onto a cream cotton pillow cover and shared the photo. On light fabric the dusty pink reads really soft, almost blush, and the grey ears have this cool contrast with the warmer tones. For a design with this many colours you need cutaway stabiliser, not tearaway, the density builds up especially around the belly underlay and the ear satin where the directional fill changes angle twice. industry-grade software organised the colour sequencing so you get efficient stops, 11 colours but not 11 separate runs, some areas are done back-to-back.
Stitch count ranges from 21,755 at the smallest 3 size up to 53,300 at 7.5 inches, so budget about 25 minutes for a mid-sized version on a standard home machine. The hooped fabric needs to stay dead flat during the run, use enough stabiliser and clip the topping if youre working on a plush or terry surface. If youre going on dark fabric, add a white underlay pass first so that blush body colour doesnt disappear into the ground.
Use it on kids pillow covers, nursery wall hoops, onesie fronts for baby showers, fabric book covers or zip bags. Pick the 4-inch version for a onesie chest placement. Run the 7.5 max size on a canvas cotton bag face for a statement gift. Pair it with a simple colour text block for a personalised touch. Skip very textured fabric unless youre comfortable with topping, the fine detail in the cheek and tail colours needs a smooth sewing surface.

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.
