This is a red, white, and blue dog paw design where the words and the image work together instead of just sitting next to each other. The words 'RED', 'white', and '& WOOF' stack in three lines on the left, swapping between block lettering and handwritten script so each line has its own character. To the right sits a large paw print where the toe beans are packed with white stars on blue and the center pad runs horizontal red and white stripes, basically a little flag inside the paw shape. Small five-pointed stars scatter around the outer edges in red and blue. The whole composition leans left slightly which gives it that relaxed, hand-made feel.
People have been ordering this one every summer for 4th of July bandanas, dog mom shirts, and tote bags. A customer wrote me last June asking if its ready before the holiday rush. Stitch it on cotton with a light stabiliser and those stars come out really clean and defined. Three colors total: red, blue, white. Youll make 4 thread stops across the run. The paw fill density measures 745 stitches in each square inch and its firm enough to hold shape on lighter fabric weights without puckering.
Five sizes from 3 inches wide up to 7. The small version fits a bandana corner or a hat panel, and the large one fills a sweatshirt chest cleanly. Stitch count is 9,280 to 26,642. Pop the 4-inch onto a tote bag corner and it reads well from across a room without taking over the whole bag. Skip any very dark fabric on this one since the white thread wont read against dark navy or black, stick to natural or light-colored base fabrics where all three colors show up cleanly.
Hit me up on chat if the file misreads on ya machine and ill swap colour stops 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.
