This one came out exactly how I wanted it. Ghost standing up straight, holding the pumpkin out front like its showing it off to ya, big happy face, rosy cheeks, the whole thing. Its the most upright of the ghost designs Ive worked on and that proud little posture makes it read well from a distance on larger items.
Five colours: white, orange, dark green for the pumpkin stem, black, and a lil pink for the cheeks. The dark green stem is only 102 stitches on the 2 inch version but you'd be suprised how much it matters. Without it the pumpkin top just blends into the ghost body. Wilcom EmbroideryStudio laid a satin underlay on the orange pumpkin that holds the fill stable even on looser weave fabrics. I get messages asking which size works best for a jacket, and honestly the 3-inch is my go-to for chest placement on kids sizes.
Four sizes run from 2 all the way to 5 inch. The 5-inch version tops out at 17,594 stitches so thats definitely a job for heavy cutaway stabiliser and maybe a topping on anything textured. Use cutaway and topping both on knit, dont skip either. At the 3-inch size its quite forgiving and goes on most fabrics without drama.
Stitch it on a tote bag, pop it on a kid jacket chest, run it on a Halloween cushion or fleece throw. Works anywhere you want a fun single-character design that doesnt need a whole scene around it to make sense. Pair it with a name below if you want to personalise.

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.
