Two books stacked at a slight tilt in 13 colours, top one in hot pink, bottom one in teal-mint cotton-cover satin. Corners stick out at fun off-kilter angles, the upper one wears a hot pink hardback with a yellow ribbon bookmark draping down the front edge, and the bottom is a teal-mint cover with the same yellow bookmark hanging out the front. Both books show their cream page blocks on the right edge, drawn with a stack of fine horizontal lines so you can see the individual pages.
Lavender-purple shadow runs along the underside of the top book and the back of the lower one, this gives the whole thing dimension without going dark. Black outline locks every shape in. Honestly its got the vibe of one of those classroom posters in primary school, friendly but not babyish.
Thirteen colours total. Pink and teal carry the cover satin, yellow does both bookmarks, white fills the pages, lavender and grey handle shadows, and black does the outlines plus a deep magenta accent on the spine. Smallest version is 17,293 stitches on a 3.51 inch wide hoop, biggest goes 47,953 stitches at 7.18 by 7.51 inch. Density lands at 889 stitches per square inch, plush satin territory for sure.
Stitch on cream, oat, off-white, soft grey or chambray cotton and the bright pink-teal colour combo really jumps. Skip pink or teal fabric, the matching cover blends in, and skip black aswell because the page blocks vanish. Use a 3oz heavy cutaway under tee knits, swap to tear-away on canvas, and lay wash-away film on top of any knit pile so the page-line detail dont sink. Hoop tight, that pink cover is a big satin block and slack fabric makes it pucker.
One customer, a school librarian, ordered the 5.5 inch size last June across a batch of cotton tees for her summer reading kickoff event, theyre gone by the second week. Message me by email about your machine model if the row of fine page rules pulls thread, ill thicken em so they read cleaner on knit and reupload same day.

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.
