This one says JUST A GIRL in chunky red bubble block letters stacked across the top, with pink cursive script reading who loves teaching curving along the bottom. The two text styles play off each other, the red bubble letters are bold and confident, the pink script is feminine and soft.
To the left of the text sits a stack of three colourful books, teal on bottom then pink then orange, with a yellow pencil tucked underneath. In the middle theres a pair of dark round glasses sat at an angle and a pink heart coffee mug with steam curling up from it. On the right a mustard yellow pencil cup holds coloured pencils sticking up.
I drew this for a customer who teaches second grade and wanted something for her end of year tshirt that wasnt the usual apple and chalkboard cliche. Since then customers keep asking for it for back to school gifts, teacher appreciation week presents and team teacher matching shirts. One mum stitched up eight matching shirts for her daughters whole grade level last may.
Comes in 5 3.5 through to top wide to 7.5 inches, wider than tall since the design spreads horizontally. Stitch counts run 10,368 to 23,762, moderate. Best on cotton tees, sweatshirts, totes, canvas, twill. Skip stretchy knits at the smaller size, the bubble letter outlines need stable fabric to read crisp.
Pair no-show mesh on woven cotton, cutaway for any sweatshirt fleece or knit. Hoop firm, slow the machine for the colour change between props and text since theres 18 thread changes total. Email me through the contact form if any file is broken and ill swap it within hours, no fuss.

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.
