The gnome is sitting cross-legged in his blue polka-dot pyjamas, both stubby little hands wrapped around a steaming coffee mug, his long beard flopped out in front of him. He looks deeply unimpressed. Zero eye contact, just him and his mug. To the right the words Im allergic to Morning run in three lines of rust-red calligraphy script, big enough that it reads from across a room. 12 colours total, including the polka-dot white spots on the blue pj fabric, warm peach for the gnome skin, grey beard, brown mug, steam wisps in a light neutral and black sketch lines over the body sections. Twelve is alot for a single design, the file has 11 colour changes and 163 trims at the smallest size.

Stitch count runs from 23,806 on the 3.27-inch all the way to 57,030 on the 7-inch, thats a dense file and it earns it. The sketch-line detail on the gnome body pushes the stitch count up, each little line sits at a slight angle to the fill underneath which gives depth, I think its what makes this gnome look drawn rather than just printed. Wilcom handled the density at 1,086 per square inch which is on the high side for a character design, means ya get that texture but youre gonna need a quality cutaway stabiliser underneath.

People have been buying it for kitchen aprons, coffee station decor hoops, gift tshirts and funny mugs-and-matching-apron sets. A customer told me last october she stitched it on an apron for her mum, her mum is famously not a morning person, she said her mum laughed for about five minutes straight. Thats the reaction ya get with a design like this. Stitch on white, cream or pale grey linen or cotton twill for max contrast on the rust-red lettering and the polka dots.

Avoid busy prints entirely, alot is happening visually and it needs a calm ground to land on. For the 5-inch and above use a firm mesh cutaway, dont skimp on the underlay under the dense sketch sections or you may get some pull and distortion on the character. Run the machine a tick slower than usual on the text section, those terracotta satin calligraphy loops need clean slow passes to stay crisp. Message me if the thread count intimidates your machine on first run and I can walk ya through the best sequence to load it.

Behind every stitch

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.
