Flowing cursive script reading Merry Christmas across 2 stacked lines. The letters have those long looping connections you get with a good calligraphy pen, where the M in Merry sweeps up and the C in Christmas comes off a wide curve. Two colours: deep red for one line, forest green for the other. Classic Christmas pairing, nothing reinvented, just done well.
Four sizes, smallest hoop 3.51 inch, largest 7.51. Stitch counts between 8,200 and 15,600. This is one of the lower-stitch designs in my shop and thats intentional. Script this clean doesnt need alot of fill density to read beautifully, Wilcom kept the column widths tight and the letter spacing consistent all the way through.
Its the kind of design you buy once and use every christmas season for years. I use it myself on linen tea towels for gifts, on cotton tote bags for the school fair, on the cuff of a felt stocking. Some of my customers have told me its the most-reached-for file in their holiday folder and I believe it. Versatile is an understatement.
Works on practically any fabric. Red thread on ivory cotton looks like a proper Christmas card. Forest green on red flannel is bold and traditional. Stitch both lines in the same colour on a dark navy background and it looks very grown-up and understated. Run the smallest size on a gift tag piece or a keyring felt blank. Use the largest on a wide table runner or a pillowcase hem.
Two-colour design means one thread change, thats it. Stitch the first line, swap thread, stitch the second. Tension on the ascenders matters more than anything else here so check your test swatch before you run the full piece. Script this fine is unforgiving of wonky tension but kind to beginners who prep well.

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.
