Solid filled paw, nothing extra. Large rounded main pad at the bottom, four smaller toe pads in a curved row above it, all filled as one clean black block with no outlines, no texture marks, nothing inside. The classic universal pet paw that reads correctly whether its one inch on a luggage tag or 5 inches across a hoodie back. Youll recognise it immediately and so will whoever its for.
Density sits at 630 in the file, which keeps the fill firm and flat even on the bigger sizes. Five sizes total: smallest is 1 inch at 1,024 stitches, the largest 5-inch run uses 13,248 stitches. Thats a kinda wide range, you get a proper mini for badge and tag work and a full bold chest placement in the same file. Single colour, no thread swaps, five trims.
My sister ordered a batch last spring for her pet accessory side business. She puts the 2-inch on personalised dog bandanas and the 3-inch on canvas zip pouches she sells at local markets. Shes gone back to this file multiple times because the satin fill edges stay clean after washing, which matters on bandanas that get muddy every couple days. Back it with a medium cutaway on fleece, felt, or stretch knit to stop the dense fill from pulling.
Use tearaway on stable woven cotton for the 1 or 2-inch runs. Put down a water-soluble topping on towelling or any loopy pile so the fill doesnt sink into the loops. Stitch it in navy, burgundy, forest green, any colour really, this solid shape works well in any thread colour you pick, not just black.

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.
