Sketched out this little cat trio for christmas and theyre genuinely melting the hearts of every cat parent who sees the listing. Three kittens sitting in a row, left ones a soft grey, middle is charcoal dark grey, right ones cream white. Each of them wearing a red Santa hat with white fur trim and a pompom, and christmas light strings drape around all three necks like a shared garland with coloured bulbs along the cord.
Stitch work is kept clean with bold black outlining round every shape so the cartoon look reads tight even at smaller hoop sizes. Each cat body uses a directional satin fill so the fur subtly catches light differently from the hat fur trim. The christmas light bulbs are tiny shapes done in red, green, orange, yellow and pink so theyre realy cheerful.
I get messages alot about cat themed christmas merch around november and this trio has been the most popular family of designs Ive sold this season. One customer ordered the medium size for matching mum and daughter christmas tees and her photos came back so cute I almost cried.
5 sizes from 3.51 inches wide up to 7.51 inches. Stitch count runs 21k to 52k, all manageable density. 11 colours total including the three different cat body shades and the bulb colour mix.
Stitches cleanly on cotton sweatshirt fleece, brushed jersey, canvas totes and waffle weave kitchen linens. Set a tearaway behind woven cotton and switch to medium cutaway for any stretchy fabric. Skip thin silky tee jersey on the largest size, the cat trio takes up alot of horizontal space. Send me a quick message if anything looks off after download and ill sort it. Email a note if the download hits any snags and Ill resend it.

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.
