The cat sits in a calm side-on pose, tail curled around one paw, head tilted upward kinda looking at something above. The whole body is a solid black silhouette with a tight satin outline running around the edge. Inside thats where all the detail lives. Cream botanical stems grow upward from the belly, branching into small daisy-type flower heads and feathery leaf sprigs. The stems wind and cross each other naturally so it looks like theyre actually growing through the cat rather than just printed on.
Two colours only, black and a warm cream that reads almost like unbleached linen. One colour change mid-stitch. The biggest size is 7.51 by 6.06 inch at 46,890 stitches and the smallest is 3.51 by 2.83 inch at 16,952. Thats 5 sizes to pick from. Wilcom ran the botanical fill at density 1030 which is kinda just right for getting those delicate stem lines to lay cleanly without the thread piling up on itself.
I genuinely love this one aswell as its being my best seller. Cat mums go crazy for it, honestly. I get messages from people who want it on tea towels, cushion covers, tote bags, even a canvas jacket once. One customer wrote me last autumn saying she stitched the large size on a navy linen cushion as a christmas gift for her sister and the sister literally framed it instead of using it as a cushion. Its that kind of design.
Navy, forest green, charcoal, or deep burgundy fabric makes the cream flowers pop. Stitch it on a plain cotton canvas tote or a linen cushion cover for best results. Skip stretch fabrics on the larger sizes because 46k stitches needs something stable underneath. Use a medium cutaway stabiliser and hoop tightly so the stem lines dont shift mid-run.
The floral section inside the body is the densest area so give your machine a bit of extra time through the flower heads. Keep the bobbin tension consistent and the cream thread should lay flat without puckering. Wilcom digitised the stems with a satin column approach so theyre crisp even at the smaller 3.5-inch size.

- Framed linen hoop wall artHoop the large size on charcoal linen, leave hooped, and hang as framed wall art above a reading chair.
- Tea towel or kitchen linen embroideryRun the small 3.5-inch on a forest green tea towel in cream thread at a lower corner rather than centre.
- Navy or charcoal cotton tee chest panelPop the medium size on a black cotton tee in cream thread so the flowers glow against the dark fabric.
- Denim jacket back panel for cat-themed giftsStitch the full 7.5-inch across a denim jacket back panel as a gift for someone who obsesses over their cat.

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.
