Its a chubby lil teddy bear sitting right in the curve of a crescent moon, wearing one of those floppy teal and white striped nightcaps with a tiny teal snowflake charm dangling off the tip. I drew this one with rounded satin fills on the bear and a wide golden amber border running all around the moon. The moon body itself is a soft light grey tatami fill, which Im realy proud of because it gives the whole thing this lovely texture that reads well on both light and dark fabrics. Seven colours in total including black for those big lashed eyes and the little nose freckles.
Its a complex design, dont let the cute subject fool you. Stitch counts run from 15,041 on the smallest 3.51 x 3.50 inch size all the way to 34,187 on the 6.51 x 6.49 inch version. Density sits at 809, so theres alot going on per square centimetre. Dont hoop it on a light tearaway. You'll want cutaway stabiliser underneath, especially on stretch fabrics like jersey or fleece where those dense satin sections can drag. On knit fabrics, pop a layer of topping on before you start so the tatami fill doesnt sink into the weave and go blurry.
A new mum in my customer list ordered the 5-inch version last week on cream cotton muslin for a swaddle set and honestly the directional satin on the bears belly caught the light so nicely in her photos. Ive also had the 6.5 inch stitched onto round linen hoops for nursery wall art, and it covers pretty much the whole babys-room category in one file. The underlay sequence the industry digitising tools built in means colours change cleanly, only 7 stops total with no wasted bobbin thread between segments.
Center the 3.5 inch on a baby onesie chest, thats the sweet spot for newborn to 12 month sizing. Use the 5 inch on hooded terry cloth towels or fleece blankets. Stitch the big 6.5 inch onto cream linen for nursery cushion covers if you want that boutique baby shop look. Pair it with a solid cream or soft navy fabric and the golden amber outlines really pop. Skip any stabiliser thats not cutaway for the larger sizes because the jump stitch sequence at the hat tip can shift if its not properly anchored.
Let me know and I usually get back 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.
