Wavy Mermaid Hair Dont Care script with a tail flick, the whole quote dripping in beachy attitude. Sea-green cursive spells out Mermaid up top, then a fat coral-pink Hair sits across the middle in big satin caps, then deep navy cursive finishes with Dont care across the bottom. Two open yellow petal flowers flank the middle word, and lil mustard star-bursts dance around the corners like sea spray.

I wanted the lettering to feel magical like a salty summer postcard, not a perfect typography study. So the green Mermaid script swoops with long curly tails, the navy bottom row leans abit, and the yellow flowers have hand-drawn open petals instead of solid satin fills. Wilcom kept the satin density on the Hair word tight so the coral colour sits flat and bold without bunching, while the cursive parts use lighter run stitching so they read soft.

Last july one customer grabbed the 7.51-inch run for a fantasy beach bag and she sent me photos. The salt fade on the canvas tote behind the embroidery actually made it look like the colours had been swimming all summer, real authentic vacation vibe. And another buyer used the smaller 3.51-inch size on a bridesmaid robe pocket for a destination wedding, both threads popped right against white waffle fabric.

Run this on stone canvas or shell jersey for max colour pop, the sea green and coral really wake up against light fabric. Avoid black backing here aswell, the navy text vanishes into dark backgrounds and ya lose the bottom line of the quote. Drop the 5-inch run on a kids beach cover-up or a swimwear cosmetic pouch. Skip stretch swim fabric on the biggest hoop, 28k stitches is alot of weight for thin spandex.

Densest stretch is the coral satin row and the green cursive curves, hoop on a medium-weight cutaway stabiliser and ease the rpm back when the directional stitching kicks in around the floral petals. Use a fresh 75/11 needle on the cursive bits or the underlay can pucker. Holler at me in the shop dms if your machine pulls funny on the petals and ill rebalance the density same evening.

Behind every stitch

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.
