Life is better with dogs, 3 sizes 5 to 7 inch, all black thread. This is the type-heavy canine design where the big chunky letters take up most of the real estate. The top line is this really really lightweight cursive script done in an italic hand-lettered style. Then below it the letters hit wide and tall with paw prints dotted throughout the insides of each letter. Its kind of just one of those that reads from across a room, ya know.
Im gonna be honest, when I first digitising this one last autumn I wasnt sure the paw detail inside each letter would hold at small sizes but it works fine down to 5 inch. Stitch range 13,521 to 21,069. Single colour, 0 colour changes. The 7 inch version uses around 78 feet of bobbin thread so check before you start.
A customer wrote me last week saying she put this on a hoodie as a dog mom birthday gift and the recipient cried. Use a midweight tearaway, the dense satin in those tall letters needs the support. Stitch on white, cream, or light grey cotton for the cleanest look. Black on denim works well too if you want something rougher looking. I ran a test on a 12oz canvas tote earlier this month and the tatami fills sat flat without any puckering.
Send me a message if the file doesnt open on your machine and Ill send the right format over.

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.
