Simple smile face, a round circle with 2 dot eyes and a wide curved mouth. Single colour so theres no thread changes to manage, just hoop and run it. The satin outlines on the circle are clean and the density at 306 is quite low which keeps it soft and doesnt add stiff bulk to light fabrics like jersey knit or baby cotton.
Six sizes from 2.51 to 7.51 inches wide, stitch counts opening at 1,913 on the small size and climbing to 10,863. The face is wider than it is tall, 1.58 to 4.73 inches in height. Pop it on with a soft lightweight cutaway stabiliser for stretchy knits. Use a tearaway on woven cottons and canvas. Stitch the 2.51 inch version on pockets, cuffs, and small accessories without worrying about adding bulk.
One customer texted me last week asking if there was a solid black version and honestly my answer was: pick any thread colour you want, its a single colour design so you decide. Yellow for the smiley look, black on white for minimalist, neon green on a cap, whatever you fancy.
Text me if the file gives you any grief and Ill sort it quickly.

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.
