The word USA takes up most of the space here and thats exactly how its meant to be. Three big block letters, each one filled with the flag. Red horizontal stripes run across the U and S and A, the blue canton sits in the upper left of the U with white stars stitched into it. Black outline borders every letter, thick enough that the whole thing reads clearly from a fair distance.
Above that 'God bless the' curves across in a flowing cursive script done in black chain-style stitching. Its lighter visually so it reads as a header rather than fighting the bold letters below. Scattered around the whole composition are loose 5-point stars, some outlined, some picked out in red, tying the layout together without looking crammed.
Four colours means three thread changes during the run. The sequence goes red stripes first, then blue canton, then white stars, then black outlines last. Round about every July Im fielding a bunch of messages. One customer doing a July 4th batch for a neighbourhood block party told me the stitch-out was the best part of her day because youre watching the flag pattern build up colour by colour before the black outline snaps everything into focus.
Dense fill with nearly 57,000 stitches at the biggest size. Stitch this on woven cotton, canvas, denim or twill. Skip knit fabrics entirely, the lateral pull from dense satin fill will distort the flag stripes. Use a firm stabiliser behind woven fabric and hoop flat. Six sizes from 3 to 8 inch wide, all 8 formats included.

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.
