Love bug cursive design with ladybug and hearts, 5 sizes from 3 to 6.38 inch wide. Its got two colours: black for the script and bug outline, red for the ladybug wings, body, and the heart shapes floating around the letters. The word 'love' sits on top in a curling cursive and the ladybug perches right on the lowercase L like it just landed. 'bug' comes below in another rounded cursive. Its a compact composition, nothing overloaded.
And its got 2 colour changes so your machine pauses once mid-run. Stitch range from 5,299 at the small end alot up to 14,947 at the 6 inch. Back the run with a soft tearaway on woven cotton and cutaway on any stretch knit. The smaller sizes hoop fine in a 4x4, the larger ones need a 5x7. Stitch on white cotton for the sharpest result. Pop it on pale pink fabric and the red thread looks suprisingly sharp too.
I get messages every valentines day from teachers ordering this for classroom projects. A customer messaged me last february saying she stitched the 3 inch version on 20 white onesies for a twins baby shower and theyd come out perfectly. Heres the thing: this also works year round on couples shirts, tote bags, bibs. Dont limit it to valentines day only, its too useful for that.

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.
