Drew a ghost clutching a pumpkin like its his favorite thing, leaned forward, a little smug about it. Theres a real lean and hug going on here, the ghost body tilts slightly forward and the pumpkin sits right at chest level like its being offered up or proudly shown off. The face reads as happy but theres a lil smugness to it which I like.
Eight colours is a lot for this scale, but the digitising handles it well. 3 colours and nine sizes is a common thing you see in halloween ghost files, so having 8 actual distinct threads here, including that minty green accent and the deep red inside the pumpkin mouth, makes it stand out on the fabric. Density runs at 1230 which is on the higher side, so drop a soft cutaway underneath and dont skip the underlay pass. One customer ordered this for a daycare halloween bag run last september and said everything stitched out clean on the first go. Pick a firm cotton or fleece, avoid anything with a lot of stretch on the smaller 2-inch version. Hoop tight, run the underlay at normal speed, and use a fresh bobbin before you start the colour sequence.
Four sizes from 2 inch up to 5 inch, stitch count from 9,901 to 30,445. Digitised in Wilcom EmbroideryStudio. One customer grabbed the 3-inch file for a kids trick-or-treat pillowcase last october and wrote back to say it turned out better than she expected on the cotton blend fabric. Stitch the 3-inch file on a kids canvas backpack front for a placement that lands just right. The vertical portrait shape works on left-chest placement, the front of a kids backpack, or the top corner of a canvas bag.
What people are using this design for
A starting point. The design works for plenty more than just this list, this is what folks have stitched it onto most.
- Halloween trick-or-treat bag front panelPortrait shape centres cleanly on a flat tote or bag face without needing wide horizontal room.
- Left-chest placement on kids jacketsThe 2-inch size fits a standard left chest spot on youth sizes without overcrowding the area.
- Front pocket on halloween-themed backpacksThe ghost-leaning-forward pose gives the backpack front an animated look that kids respond to.
- Small zippered pouch for candy storageA small cotton canvas pouch hooped on a jacket hoop works well with the 2 or 3-inch file.
- Patch projects on denim jacketsDenim takes the dense 1230-density fill well, especially with a light tear-away backing behind the patch.
- October birthday party favour bagsThe bright 8-colour palette reads clearly even on dark or patterned bag fabric.
- Halloween iron-on transfers for onesiesThe 2-inch file runs clean on onesie knit fabric with a fusible mesh backing and a film topping.

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.
