Its built like a vintage 70s patch design, where the text wraps the illustration in a circle and the whole thing works as one unit. The daisy character in the centre is what makes it different from every other reading quote out there, youre not looking at a stack of books or a generic font, youre looking at a flower person having the best time with their book and their drink. Thats a mood most readers genuinely identify with, and I get messages about it alot.
7 colors sounds like it runs forever but the stitch counts per color stay even so no single stop feels long. Back it with a cutaway stabiliser for anything that needs repeat washing, or use a firm tearaway on stiff canvas. Skip lightweight jersey without a topping layer, the letter fills are dense and theyll show texture without one. Stitch the 5.51 inch on a cushion cover for a reading chair and the 3.51 inch on a canvas tote chest panel.
One customer reached out last week saying she'd run the 6.51 inch on a sweatshirt for her daughter who reads constantly, and the reaction at school pickup was apparently ridiculous. Wilcom EmbroideryStudio did the digitising and every one of those daisy petals has proper stitch direction so they lay in a radial pattern rather than all going parallel. Pop it on a natural or white base fabric and the 7 colors come through with alot of contrast.

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.
