Its the badge version of the most iconic christmas phrase there is. The whole design sits inside a tight circular frame, green satin ring on the outside with the quote text following the curve of the circle, red block caps at top and bottom, and then this big sweeping red 'Christmas' script taking up the middle. A little sleigh and reindeer silhouette sits right at the top of the arc between the words, which is a small detail but it really makes the composition feel complete. Ive had customers say its the first christmas sweatshirt theyd actually wear in public without feeling embarrassed.

You get 5 sizes here, from 3.03 x 3.51 inches at the smallest up to 6.49 x 7.51 at the largest. Stitch count goes from 9,717 to 21,195, so the bigger sizes have a solid weight to them on fabric. Tape a poly cutaway stabiliser for clean circle geometry and satin underlay on the ring keeps the green dense and even. Two colour thread build throughout: green for the frame, red for everything else. Just one colour change in the run.

A lot of customer orders for this one come in during the first week of November, which tells you everything about the mood it puts people in. The badge shape is familiar and modern at the same time and it reads clearly from a distance, which matters for christmas photo moments. Use the largest size on a tote or a throw, the medium at 4.5 inches works well centred on a shirt chest. Run your stitching preview before hooping so the circle sits properly. Its already balanced and centred in the file. Its a design thats been around for a reason.

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.
