A denim tote is where this one really belongs. Hoop it up with a cutaway stabiliser underneath and the aqua blue "crazy", coral pink "chicken", and gold-with-black-leopard-print "lady" stack up into something thats genuinely suprising in the best way. Three stacked rows of chunky bubble lettering, each word its own colour, and a solid golden hen silhouette perched up in the corner. The directional satin stitching inside each letter catches light differently depending on where the fabric moves, and its one of those things you dont really appreciate until you hoop your first one.
I get orders from backyard chicken keepers who gift this to each other constantly. Last week I packed up three of em for a crafter who said her whole coop crew does secret santa and they cant get enough of it. The stitch density sits at 817 and the underlay is solid, so it reads clean on cotton canvas, terry cloth, and heavier fleece without the letters bleeding into each other. The 5 inch fits a grocery tote nicely without crowding the handles. Stitch the 3.5 inch on a small linen pouch if youre after something lil more compact.
Use a cutaway stabiliser on anything stretchy, tear-away does fine on woven cotton and canvas. Hoop tight because those bubble letters have alot of satin fill and any hoop slip shows up on the finished piece. Skip the water-soluble topping unless youre stitching on terry or fluffy fleece where the pile needs taming down. The leopard print section is the trickiest bit, those tatami-fill spots need good bobbin tension to sit flat. Iron the back before wearing and its good wash after wash.
Give me a shout if the stitch order needs reworking.

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.
