The word Know gets all the attention, filled in bright green satin and flanked by 2 trowel handles. Gardeners arches over the top in a scratchy outlined font. All the sits in warm brown cursive right in the middle. Dirt lands at the bottom in heavy black block letters with little soil-mound shapes underneath it. Its got that layered bumper-sticker energy where you keep reading it and noticing more.
3 colors: dark green, black, and a tan-brown for the cursive section. Stitch counts go from 7,238 at the smallest size up to 14,105 at the 5.51-inch width, 3 sizes total. Those 32 trims in the middle size tell you how many separate elements are in there. The satin-fill on Know stays clean and solid without pulling even on looser weaves. Pop it on medium-weight woven cotton or canvas with a tearaway stabiliser and youre sorted. On knit fabric use a cutaway so the bobbin doesnt show through. Light tension. Done.
People order this one as a matched set with the other garden quote designs, aprons and totes together as a gift pack. One customer last spring ordered 12 of them for a garden club end-of-season event. Anchor the design on a cotton or canvas bib for the strongest read. Use a cutaway on knit sweatshirts so the brown thread doesnt tunnel on the bobbin side. And keep your hoop tension even, the arched GARDENERS text pulls at the corners if the fabric isnt drum-tight.

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.
