This is one of the most complex designs in my cat range, 14 colours and up to 60955 stitches on the largest size, so its genuinely a full project. But it looks suprised good when it comes out of the hoop, three little stacked cats each with their own coat markings and those big round eyes. The colour breakdown is mostly warm tones: orange tabby markings, grey-white patches, pink ear interiors, and dark brown outlines. The density at 1629 is high, so plan for a full medium-weight cutaway stabiliser on everything.
Five sizes from 2.33 by 3.5 inches at 22947 stitches up to 4.99 by 7.5 inches at 60955 stitches. The smallest is still detailed given the stitch count, I wouldnt go smaller than this because the facial detail starts to crowd. Best results Ive had are on firm woven cotton or canvas. Topping on fleece or plush fabric is a must otherwise the satin on the face outlines sinks into the pile. Run the bobbin thread tension slightly looser than normal since the density is so high it can pull tight on thicker fabrics.
Cat people really go for this one, recieved alot of orders for it last spring. Its the kind of design that works as a gift project because anyone who has multiple cats is going to text you immediately when they see it. Use it on a tote bag, a throw pillow, a zippered pouch, or a patch for a jacket. Text me if any colour thread count or format is giving you trouble and Ill help you sort it out.

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.
