May the Course Be With You is the old Star Wars phrase rewritten for golfers and honestly its done well. Each line stacks cleanly on top of the next so the layout reads as a proper typographic piece, not just words floating around. The letterforms are bold block style with consistent stroke weight all the way through and the whole phrase lands in 2 colours. Simple. Direct. Funny if you play.
Six sizes from 3 inches up to 8 inches wide and stitch counts go from 5999 on the smallest up to 19897 on the biggest. Density is 307 so its a light-to-medium stitch piece and wont overload thinner fabrics like twill or lightweight cotton drill. Theres no reason to reach for heavy stabiliser on most of these sizes, standard tear-away on a woven shirt does the job fine. Digitising is Wilcom EmbroideryStudio so the satin columns on the letter edges are clean.
People have been buying this one for golf tournament gifts and club promo pieces pretty consistently. Last spring a customer ordered 40 polo shirts with this phrase on the back for a charity golf day and sent me a photo from the fairway. Use the 8-inch on the back of a polo or performance shirt for a full statement, use the 4-inch on the chest for something subtler. Stitch on white, light grey, navy or sage twill and it reads immediately. Avoid patterned fabric because typography needs a clean ground to land on. One color. Done.

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.
