Alot of customers asked me for a bigger bat cluster after my smaller 3-bat design sold out last october, so heres the bigger version. Five bats arranged in a loose diamond, all flying different directions. One colour throughout, 10 sizes, density runs around 365, light enough to sew quick but heavy enough to read solid on dark fabric.
Stitches range from 2024 on the 2.37 inch up to 14153 on the 5.54 inch. The smallest size works great as a sleeve hit or a hat front, the bigger size sits well on a tote panel or a sweatshirt chest. Theres no satin border on this design, just flat silhouette fill, so the underlay is built in and you dont need to mess with extra layering settings on yer machine.
Id a customer write me back in october who was making halloween costumes for her sons school play. She embroidered the 5 inch on six black tee fronts using orange thread and said it looked unreal under the stage lights. Aswell as that, another buyer did the 3 inch on canvas trick-or-treat bags using glow-in-the-dark thread, which I hadnt thought of, but it apparently looked alright.
Hoop on cutaway for any knit fabric, tearaway is fine for cotton totes, canvas, or quilting cotton. Skip the topping unless youre on fleece or terry where the nap can swallow flat fill designs. Run a quick test on scrap first if yer working with metallic or glow-finish thread since those can shred at high speed.

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.
