A chunky retro rocket is launching from the bottom corner, flames coming out the back, headed up toward a ringed planet thats sitting in the upper part of the design. Five big solid stars are scattered around it connected by these looping orbit lines, so the whole composition has this circular sweep to it rather than just being a static bunch of objects.
The rocket itself has a porthole window with what looks like another planet visible through the glass, its one of those small details that makes kids point at it and go "whats that bit". Eleven colours but the stitch count sits on the lower end, 6,597 at 3.50 in up to 18,815 at 7.50 in across nine sizes. Satin stitch on the star outlines, directional fill on the rocket fuselage. Add a topping sheet over fleece or terry cloth so the satin stitches stay above the pile. Nursery crafters message me about this one quite a bit, particularly around christmas when personalised baby gifts are going out.
Use cutaway stabiliser for the bigger sizes, the ringed planet section is dense and wants proper support underneath. Hoop firm. Float a wash-away film across textured cloth before you kick off. Navy onesies are the most common choice I see and the orange and red really jump against that. Range goes from 3.50x3.39 in at the low end to 7.50x7.27 in at the top. Message me before starting a big production run if you want to confirm the right size for your fabric weight.

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.
