Its a ghost wearing a cowboy hat and covered in color-splat blobs like someone threw paint at it. The ghost body is white with this wobbly irregular edge, like a classic sheet ghost but scalloped at the bottom. Across the body there are big chunky blobs of yellow, orange, teal, pink, magenta and purple, just scattered around with no particular pattern. The brown cowboy hat sits on top with a gold star badge. Small black bats fly off each side and these sharp little red-diamond sparkle stars dot the background.
9 colors, pocket sweep at 3.5 inches keeps the colour load light at 11,647 stitches, and the 7.5-inch largest runs 34,767. Hoop a medium-weight cutaway stabiliser behind this one, the white ghost body needs solid anchoring or itll pucker around the satin edges. Message me with any sizing questions and ill reply same day. Density is 749 stitches per square inch at the mid sizes so its a steady stitch.
I get messages about this one every october without fail. People use it on halloween shirts, stitch it onto canvas trick-or-treat totes, and a customer last week made a set of iron-on patches from the 3.5 mini on denim. Stitch it on a black hoodie, pop it on a canvas bag, use it for a kids cowboy-halloween costume accessory. Tape a piece of water-soluble topping if you're stitching on fleece. The cowboy-ghost combo is specific enough to feel like something and recognisable enough that everyone gets the joke immediately.

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.
