HELLO sits in big bold red block letters at the top, then Summer flows underneath in that hot pink-magenta cursive that just screams warm weather. Below the text sits a pair of wide aviator-style sunglasses in solid black, lenses filled with dense satin, the bridge and arms done in tight black stitching. A few scattered red and black dot accents float around the text. The sunglasses are the standout element here, they give it a kinda retro 80s poster feel honestly.
I plotted this in Wilcom EmbroideryStudio with 3 colour changes. Red for the bold HELLO text, hot pink for the Summer script, and black for the sunglasses. The satin density on the glasses lenses is 536, which is meaty but not excessive, the lenses are the densest section. The 4.72 x 6.51 inch largest size runs 16,483 stitches. Back it with a cutaway stabiliser for any size above 3 inches, the sunglasses fill area needs proper backing. Tearaway is fine for the smallest 2.55 inch hoop. Dont skip the stabiliser, its crucial for those lens fills.
Ive been selling this one since spring and the most popular thing I get is customers asking about stitching it on summer tees and tank tops. One customer mailed over her finished cushion in june of the design stitched up on a white sleeveless cotton top and it looked great, the red and pink really popped against the white. Go for white, cream, or pale sand cotton for best results. Youre gonna love how it sits on a bright white tee.
Stitch on the chest of a tee or the front of a tote. Skip grey or charcoal base fabrics where the magenta and red tones lose punch. Pick a good stabiliser for knit jersey fabrics if youre doing tank tops or summer tees.

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.
