I drew this sleeping panda specifically for the nursery market, and its been one of my steadiest sellers since I put it up last summer. Fifteen colours, nine sizes from 3.5 to a 7-in range, stitch counts from 18,138 at the smallest up to 47,847 at the largest. my professional tool digitised the black patches with a density of about 937 per square inch, so the black stays crisp and doesnt bleed into the white areas.
The black sections use tight satin columns with proper underlay, and the white body fill is a softer tatami stitch so the two areas feel different to the touch, which I think is part of why it photographs so well. Hoop it with a cutaway stabiliser, fifteen colour changes means you're at the machine for a while on the larger sizes, and tearaway wont hold up through all that thread buildup. Best fabric is a smooth white or cream cotton, pale grey jersey, or natural linen. Avoid dark backgrounds completely, the pale fill just wont show up and you'll lose half the design.
Send me message if you need the black tones swapped to a different contrast colour for a dark fabric version, Ive done custom redigitisings for customers before and its not a big deal. Pop this on nursery cushions, baby blankets, newborn onesies, or wall hoops and it just reads as peaceful and sweet from any distance. a 3.5 chest sits nicely on a left chest or the corner of a small blanket.
A customer ordered a set of six for a baby shower last april, stitched onto cream muslin swaddle wraps, and they were truly popular at the party apparently. Message me if the file throws any colour-matching errors your way and Ill resend it fast.

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.
