I had a customer send me a photo last september, she'd stitched this spider on a black book tote and honestly it looked really good. The spider sits bold, legs spread wide, no fussing around with web elements or extra backgrounds. Just the spider, which is kinda the whole point.
Its 10,016 stitches at 2.77 inches wide by 3.5 inches tall and digitised in industry tools. Five colour stops, density at 160. The satin on the body segments is directional, it catches light differently depending on how the fabric sits, which gives the design that nice three-dimensional look you dont get from flat fill. Run light cutaway under anything stretchy, tearaway on wovens.
Stitch the body centre first. The underlay sequence in this file is set up to anchor the body before the legs sew out, which matters because the leg tip satin passes are narrow and they need a stable base or they pull. Ive run it on black cotton, orange felt, and a dark grey sweatshirt, works on all three. On darker fabrics, run a white topping film if youre stitching the lighter eye colours.
Add it to anything that needs a bit of halloween menace without going too gory about it. Send me a note if the file plays up and Ill get it fixed straight away.

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.
