Stitched this one out last christmas for a friend who asked for something actually funny, not just generic festive. Theres quite abit of visual stuff packed into the layout. At the top the phrase 'he sees you' sits in big chunky green block letters, and next to the text is a green toilet with the lid up and a little santa hat perched on the tank. Below that 'when' drops in as thinner italic satin script. Then 'you're' sits in a medium black satin fill. And at the bottom 'pooping' hits in those tan block letters that look like puffed-up Christmas letter shapes. Scattered around are red stars and light pink snowflake outlines. Five colours total, takes about 4-5 colour changes.
At the 6.4 inch size youve got 21,802 stitches going in. For the script sections use a topping on any fabric with loops or pile, otherwise the satin fill sinks and youll lose the letter definition. Tape a cutaway behind the base fabric and itll come out clean. The smaller 3.5 inch size runs at 10,781 stitches and its good for stocking panels or small pouches. Hoop it square or itll look lopsided since the text runs edge to edge.
My sister asked for this on a Christmas jumper last november and it got pulled out at every family party, everyone wanted to know where she got it. People have been ordering it for white elephant gift sets and office christmas party swaps. Skip dark navy or black base fabrics, the green toilet disappears against em. White, cream, red, or heather grey are your best options here.
Use medium cutaway on cotton jumper fabric. Run the text sections at a steady speed to keep the satin columns parallel and avoid splits in the fill.

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.
