Four colours, full gallop. This horse is designed with the mane and tail in motion, the kind of image that works on equestrian gear, ranch-style accessories, and anything horse-related where people want something that feels alive rather than posed. The body uses long directional satin stitches following the muscle groups, which is how the sculpted look comes through. Stitch density is 177, higher than most of my simpler animal designs, so a firm cutaway stabiliser is non-negotiable here.
Eight sizes from 3.5 scaling up to 7.5, with stitch counts ranging from 25,722 to 62,876. Ive got customers who specifically order this for heavy canvas bags and jackets because the larger versions have real visual weight. That flowing hair detail uses tapered satin columns that need a smooth bobbin run to stay clean, so check your tension before you start the job. A customer messaged me last february asking about the tail registration and I told her to slow the machine speed by about 20 percent on that section, worked perfectly. Run a test hoop on scrap fabric first if youre working on suede or faux leather, those surfaces need a water-soluble topping to keep the underlay from ghosting through.
Best results on medium to heavy woven fabrics like denim, canvas, or cotton drill. Light jersey can handle the 3.5-in build with a cutaway backing, but I wouldnt push the larger sizes onto stretch without reinforcing the hoop area first.

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.
