The unicorn is seated and kinda just beaming at you. Big oversized red santa hat flopping to one side, its brim trimmed in white cloud fluff. The mane is the real centrepiece though, swirling waves of mint teal, purple, pink, orange and red all layered together like a scoop of the most extra ice cream youve ever seen. The horn peeks out in teal with green leaf wrapping at the base. Eyes closed, long lashes, that lil half-smile kawaii face.
Around the unicorn theres a ring of flat orange stars and a full wreath of dark green ferns and red holly-style leaves doing the framing. An orange gift box with a red bow sits right at the front bottom, like the unicorn brought you a present and cant wait to see if you like it. Nine colours total, 8 color changes, and my workhorse software digitised the whole thing so the satin fills on the mane stripes sit tight with clean edges and no underlap gaps.
I get alot of orders for this one in november from custom gift makers. One customer last december grabbed the 7.39-inch size for a cream fleece blanket, sent me a photo, and honestly it looked brilliant. The colour combo just pops on pale fabric, theres something about those teal and purple mane stripes against cream that reads really well.
Stitch on white, cream or ivory cotton or fleece for best results. Skip busy prints because the 9 colours need a clear ground or things go muddy fast. Pop the smallest 3.46-inch on a kids stocking cuff or hat, the big 7.39-inch fills a onesie front or tote bag nicely. Pair with a plain green or red border stitch if ya want extra framing.
Density hits 47k stitches on the largest size so dont reach for tearaway here, use a firm cutaway stabiliser. Hoop your cotton or fleece properly before you run it. And theres alot of directional fill changes in the mane so ease the speed down on bigger sizes to keep bobbin tension steady.

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.
