The word 'DOG' fills the entire top third of the design in these big hollow capital letters with thick black outlines, almost like a varsity block letter style but with slightly rounded corners. Tiny red paw prints sit beside the D and the G like little stamps. Below that, 'are my Favorite' runs in a flowing cursive script that dips and swoops between the larger letters, with small red heart shapes dotted through the middle section. Then 'PEOPLE' hits at the bottom in solid chunky red serifs, all caps, filling the same width as the top line. The whole thing is symmetrical and balanced which makes it look intentional and clean on fabric.
Its a 2 colour job which keeps the thread changes down to a minimum. Digitised in my usual software at density 409, stitch counts run from 8,106 at the smallest size (2.71 inches wide) up to 23,641 at the full 7.21 inch version. The hollow outline letters in the top row use a satin border with an open centre so the base fabric shows through, thats what makes it look quite nice on coloured or dark fabric too. The solid bottom word and the script middle section are full fill. Drop light tearaway wovens, cutaway on any knit or stretch base.
I sell alot of these to dog mums who want something for a tote bag or a hoodie and last week a customer sent me a pic of it stitched in cream thread on a dark navy tote, swapped the colours entirely and it still looked brilliant. So its adaptable well beyond just the standard colour combo. Drop me a note if youre stuck on a colour swap and I can point you to the right thread substitutes.
Stitch it on cotton canvas, denim, fleece, or a thick jersey. Pop it centred on a tote, left chest on a hoodie, or front panel on a cushion cover. Skip very thin fabrics at the larger sizes since the satin border on the hollow letters can shift if the stabiliser isnt firm. Drop me a line if the file gives any trouble and Ill sort a fresh copy quick.

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.
