Made for the pet-owner crowd who want something halloween-themed that also nods to their animals. A cat and a dog both dressed as ghosts, side by side. You know your friend who dresses their pets up every halloween? This file is for the person who makes the coordinating shirt to go with the pet costume. And there are quite alot of those people, turns out.
12,746 stitches in just four colours, digitised in Wilcom at a density of 191. Four colours means a fast stitch-out, minimal stops, no complicated colour sequencing, and the density is reasonable enough for cotton tees, canvas totes, and light sweatshirt fabric. At 3.51" wide by 2.94" tall its a solid left-chest or centre-chest size for adult shirts. Stitch it on a medium-weight cotton for best results, use tearaway stabiliser on wovens and cutaway on anything with stretch.
I get messages every october from pet owners ordering this for matching sets, one shirt for themselves and one stitched on a little dog bandana in the same session. One customer ordered matching shirts for herself and her husband last year and stitched a tiny version on their cats bandana aswell. Makes me laugh every time. The white satin ghost bodies have a clean flat underlay built into the digitising so they sit without bubbling, youll be fine as long as your bobbin is wound correctly before you start.
Avoid a loose bobbin, white fill areas show uneven tension immediately. Pop it on black for maximum contrast. Stitch multiples back to back without re-hooping if youre running a family set. Four colours. Low cost per piece if youre doing a whole run of shirts.

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.
