The frog is basically vibrating with personality. Round emerald green body, a cream belly panel that makes up the whole lower half, and then these huge amber eyes that bulge off the sides of the head at an angle that suggests the frog has just seen something alarming. The pupils are slightly off-centre, leaning toward each other, which is what gives it the crazy expression. Not a subtle design. Very much a conversation starter.
I put the 5-inch run on a pastel green tee last autumn and it looked genuinely funny in the best way. The emerald on pastel green sounds like it might disappear but the tone difference is enough to read clearly, and the cream belly pops hard. Dont skip proper stabiliser with this one, the density clocks in at 1,399 across the fill areas and the satin work on those amber eye domes is heavy. Use cutaway under the tee fabric and a water-soluble topping over the pile if youre working on a fleece or brushed surface. The directional stitch on the eye spheres goes radially outward from the pupil, which is what sells the bulge effect.
my workhorse software ran the digitising and the colour order keeps the belly cream as a basecoat before the emerald body stitches over the edges. Its a smart sequencing call because it means the border between belly and body is clean without a manual registration step. Ten colours total, stitch count runs from 32,951 at 3.5 inches up to 78,679 at the largest 7.49-inch size. Budget around 35 to 40 minutes on a mid-range home machine for the bigger sizes. A customer who does kids birthday shirts told me she keeps coming back to this one. Apparently its been a requst every single week since she listed it, and thats not suprising honestly.
Stitch it on kids tees, class trip hoodies, backpack patches, fleece beanies, or beach towel corners. Pick the 4-inch for a tee pocket, the 6-inch for a hoodie chest, or go full 7.5-inch on a tote bag face. Add a name or phrase in a block under the frog to personalise it. Avoid very light pastel tops if you want maximum emerald saturation, but pastel green as the base is honestly the sweet spot.
Text me if something doesnt open 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.
