Its a title you give yourself. Bold lettering spells out Fireworks Expert and theres a small fireworks burst graphic sitting right alongside it, kinda like a self-issued badge of honour for the guy who really really takes july 4th seriously. The layout is compact and horizontal, which is exactly what you want for a cap front or a shirt pocket area where you dont have alot of vertical real estate.
Three colours: red, navy and white. Red handles the main text weight, navy gives the burst graphic its definition, and white picks up the background fill and the smaller accent strokes. Digitised in Wilcom EmbroideryStudio and the satin columns at the smallest 3-inch size are still legible, which is honestly harder than it sounds with letter spacing this tight. Stitch count is 11,401 at the compact end up to 31,473 on the 7-inch version.
I made this one specifically for the backyard entertainer crowd. One customer had a batch stitched on matching aprons for their whole 4th of july cookout crew and sent me photos. Looked genuinely funny and everyone wanted to know where they came from. Comes in 5 sizes from 3 inches wide up to 6.99 inches so it works on a cap panel, a pocket, a shirt chest or an apron bib depending on which size you pick.
Use a tearaway stabiliser on woven cotton aprons and twill caps. Avoid fluffy towelling or loose-weave linen on the smaller sizes because the fine text strokes need a firm base to sit right. Pop a light topping over textured fabric if youre going bigger, it'll keep the satin from sinking. Anything weird with the download just message me.

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.
