A whole bunch of new-mum gift projects land on my table every spring and this is the design I get asked about most. Its the \"mama bear Est. 2026\" layout, horizontal, cursive script in black satin stitch with a lil golden amber bear cub sitting right in the gap between the two words. A tiny purple butterfly floats above him. Below it all, \"Est. 2026\" punches out in bold block letters. Simple. Sweet. Dated so its tied to this year specifically.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA crafter who runs a small gift shop messaged me last week after stitching three of these in one sitting. One on a cream cotton onesie for the baby, one on a charcoal fleece pullover for the mum, one on a white terry bib because she had leftover stabiliser. The design goes from 3.51 inches wide at the smallest (3,724 stitches) all the way to 7.5 inches wide at the biggest (7,946 stitches), so ya got real flexibility. Density sits at 394 which is light enough it wont pucker on jersey or stretch fabrics when your cutaway stabiliser sits hooped flat and tight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHoop with a firm cutaway for anything stretchy like jersey or fleece. Use a light wash-away topping over terry cloth so the satin stitches on the bear body dont sink into the loops. Centre the design on the chest pocket area for tees, or drop it lower on a canvas tote so the block text clears the seam. At around 5 inches it sits nicely on a tote with good room on either side. The directional satin fill on the bear cub reads realy clean at that size with solid underlay tension on the bobbin, and I definately recommend checking jump stitches before you pull it off the hoop so you dont clip the bear outline by accident.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePing me quick if the jump stitches bug you.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46428668067990,"sku":null,"price":2.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/MamaBearEST.2026MachineEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1781947536","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/mama-bear-est-2026","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
