Heres a running fox mid stride with serious focus on his face. Hes captured at full sprint, front paws scraping low to the ground, hindquarters lifted, that bushy bushy tail trailing high behind him with little dark motion specks flicking off the tail end. Head turned slightly forward, eyes locked on something. Total predator energy on a wildlife base.
The orange fur uses a slight grain texture across the body that gives it a screen printed poster feel rather than a flat fill. Black satin fill on the legs and tail tips contrasts against the bright tangerine body, white belly and throat picked out clean, black outlines hold the whole shape together. Only 6 colours total which keeps the colour swaps quick, around 11k to 29k stitches across the size range so its not a heavy stitch out either.
I digitised this last november for a customer who runs a small outdoor outfitter in vermont, he wanted a wildlife mascot for his shop branding that wasnt the same old bear or moose. Said his customers had been asking for fox merch for ages. People keep buying this for adventure brand merch, scout group patches, fall flannel chest accents and trail running gear.
Stitch on heavyweight cotton, oatmeal flannel, charcoal fleece or canvas for the most poster like feel against this tangerine coat. Skip white fabric if you want the design to read most punchy, the orange just glows on charcoal or olive. Use a tearaway stabiliser for woven, cutaway for any stretch knit, the dense black tail tip wants firm support. Customise the colour palette by swapping the tangerine to red or rust if you want a more autumn fox vibe, the file separates clean.
9 sizes from 2.23 inches up to 4.78 inches wide. The largest sits at 7.5 inches tall with around 29k stitches, fits a back flannel pocket or jacket chest panel. All 8 formats included.

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.
