This little tabby is caught mid-pounce and shes hilarious. Front paws stretched flat out on the ground while her striped back legs and tail lift up behind, kinda like she just spotted a string and shes about to launch. Big round green eyes, pink nose, mouth open with the lil teeth and tongue showing, white paws and a little fluffy belly. You can tell shes been doing zoomies for at least an hour.
And theres 8 colour stops on her, the fur done in orange and brown for the tabby pattern, white for the paws and chest, soft grey shading on the legs, pink for the nose and inner lips, deep green for the eyes with black pupils, plus a tiny patch of green grass under her front paws. industry software did the directional stitching for the fur so you actually get the look of fluff, not a flat colour block. White whisker overlays sit on top of the dark fur which is a nice finishing touch.
People love this one for kid birthday tees and cat lover apparel. I get messages constantly asking if I can do the same kitten in different colours, maybe a black cat or a calico, ill probably draw those next month honestly. One customer wrote me last week asking for a matching dog in this exact pose, kinda tempting to add a whole playful pet series.
Comes in 5 spans 3.5 scaling to 7.5 full 7.5 reach wide, the small one suits a chest pocket and the big one centres a hoodie front nicely. Stitch on cotton, jersey, fleece, terry or canvas. Slap cutaway behind any tee or sweatshirt, tearaway works for canvas totes. Skip thin silky shirts at the bigger sizes because the fur fill is dense. Iron on the back side only, the green eyes can shift if you press the front directly.

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.
