Golf is set in a big looping green script at the top, the kind with long descenders and proper cursive flow. Then IS MY sits in small caps as a bridge line, and THERAPY fills the whole bottom in wide heavy block letters. The golfer figure is tucked in at the left of the Golf script and a dotted ball-chain arc runs along one side, so its not just a quote badge, its a proper illustrated piece that works at all six sizes.
6 sizes from 2 inch to 7 inch, stitch count 4,218 at the smallest and 18,149 at the 7 inch. The heavy THERAPY block at the bottom is what drives the stitch count at the larger sizes. 2 colours, dark green and black, 1 colour change, which keeps the run pretty efficient even at the bigger hoops. The digitising on the cursive Golf portion uses a proper running-stitch underlay before the satin column fill, so the letters dont bubble up even on medium-weight knits.
Ive had this one re-ordered more than almost any other golf design, mostly by partners who want to make a gentle point about the person whos always on the course. Earlier this year a customer who gifts personalised polo shirts wrote me saying she uses this one every time someone asks for a funny golf present that still looks proper. Hoop on a medium cutaway stabiliser on wovens. Use a topping sheet on pique polo so the block letters dont sink into the texture. Stitch on white, grey or navy for maximum contrast on the green thread.

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.
