Heres a rooster that does not care about the weather. Hes strutting right through a puddle, chest puffed out, holding a big rainbow striped umbrella over his head like he owns the farm. The whole design has that comic book inked look where every feather and umbrella panel carries a bold black outline and then bright cartoon colour fills in.
Tail feathers are the bit ya notice first. Purple, magenta and blue all sweep back behind him, and the body sits in that classic golden brown rooster colour with a tall red comb up top. The umbrella has 6 panels in green, blue, purple, yellow, red and pink, a proper rainbow that pulls alot of thread changes into the design.
Underneath sits a cobalt blue puddle stitched with curling splash lines that wrap around his feet. Little water droplets scatter up near the umbrella which sells the rainy day vibe. Real character to him, kinda like a kids book illustration but stitched up so the layers sit forward on the fabric.
Stitch count runs from 22k on the 3.5-in run up to 51k on the 7.5 inch hoop, 9 sizes total, 16 thread colours. Density hits 962 so Run a medium cutaway under, the body and tail fills are dense and you dont want any pull on lightweight fabric. Skip terry, fleece pile or heavy texture, the inked outlines need a flat background to read.
Stitch on yellow rain jackets, cream gingham aprons or red farmhouse tea towels for max pop. I get messages every spring from customers running these for kids rain gear, last april one customer ordered 12 for her preschool class wet weather pack. Bug me on the shop chat with photo if test stitch looks rough.

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.
