The tiger looks right at you. Front-facing portrait, intense amber eyes with dark pupils, white muzzle, and those black stripes over orange layered fur that just kinda jumps off the fabric when its stitched properly. The fur stitching runs in proper directional rows following the actual growth lines of a tigers face, which is seriously what separates this from a cartoon version. It has genuine depth.
Seven colours. Burnt orange outer fur, lighter tawny inner areas, cream or white for the muzzle area and cheek patches, near-black stripe details, amber eye fill, dark eye outlines and pupils. Stitch count ranges from 19k at 3.49 inches up to 43k at 6.97 inches. Dense at 1003 density in the fur areas. Use a proper cutaway stabiliser and dont skip the underlay, the layered fur fills wont sit flat without it.
Eight sizes from 3.49 to 6.97 inches wide, heights between 3.11 and 6.23 inches so its nearly square at all sizes. A customer told me last month she stitched the 5-in piece on the denim back design and it went viral on her social media. I wasnt suprised honestly, that jacket must look brilliant. Pick a dark background for this one, black, navy, dark olive or charcoal let the orange really show.
Best on heavy cotton, canvas, denim, or sturdy fleece. Hoop with a cutaway and iron the stabiliser flat before hooping. Avoid thin jersey or lightweight knits where the dense fills will pull and distort. Stitch slowly through the darkest stripe sections if your machine is older, those tight satin columns benefit from a slower speed.

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.
