Heres a design I drew up back in march when someone wanted a take on dog-themed for her sons nursery wall hanging. Three cartoon pups sitting in a row, with paint splashes flying out behind em like the dogs just shook off the bath. Its busy aswell as cute, but the colour balance keeps it readable.
The set runs 24 sizes from 5.23 inches wide right up to 9.98 inches, with stitch counts between 1009 and 80075. Eleven colours total. The big version is dense at 764 stitches per square, a tight feel, so youll want a proper cutaway stabiliser and a fine 11 sharps. And dont skip the topping if you go onto fleece or terry, otherwise the fine outline work sinks. Digitised in my workhorse software with the colour-splash zones laid down first then the puppy outlines on top so the linework stays crisp.
One customer told me she ran the 7-inch version on a denim tote and it held up after about a dozen washes. Stitch order matters here. Pop the hoop into a midweight cutaway. Run a quick test on scrap fabric to dial in tension. Skip metallic threads aswell, they fight the dense fills.
Use on kids tees, totes, throw pillows, dog-walker aprons. Pair with a small bone or paw motif for matching sets. Holler at me if any size acts up and Ill look into the file at the file.

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.
