Three-tier stacked layout, two thread colors. "MAKE" in heavy block serif at the top, then "today" in thin flowing cursive across the middle with two small red hearts sitting on a little horizontal wire beneath it, then "GREAT" in matching heavy serif at the bottom. The contrast between the chunky capitals and the delicate cursive middle section is whats makes this read as something more than just a regular quote design. Stitch count runs from about 2,024 at the 3-inch size up to 9,066 at the 5-inch, digitized in Wilcom EmbroideryStudio.
Put it on a canvas tote bag and it sits perfectly in the center panel without looking too large or too small. I've stitched it on cotton twill pouches and the satin columns on the serif letters come out really crisp with a tearaway stabilizer underneath. Two colors means you change thread once, black first then red for the hearts, pretty quick project overall. Use a white or cream base fabric and the color contrast really comes through clean.
A customer wrote me last month saying she was making these on tote bags for a school fundraiser and the kids loved picking the quote designs. Inspirational word art like this sells fast at craft markets and gift shops because it works as both a standalone purchase and a base for personalizing with a name underneath. Stitch the name in the same red thread as the hearts and the whole thing ties together.
Message me if theres any problem with the files and Ill get it fixed for you same day.

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.
