Cute Stacked Kittens Embroidery Design, Instant Download

Built the kitten stack after a customer ran a litter-themed run and wanted all three cats in one design. Its three chibi kittens piled on top of each other like a lil tower, and each one has its own look going on. The top kitten has this teal beanie hat and big round eyes, the middle one is a ginger tabby with warm orange and brown striping, and the bottom one is a cream patchy cat sitting with its paws out. Tiny hearts float around the whole group. Honestly this build thats just happy to look at.

Digitised through professional embroidery software with the 15 colour sequencing mapped to keep colour changes clean across the whole stack. At the smallest size youre looking at 25,318 stitches, and the largest hits 56,459 stitches across a 7.51 by 5.07 inch hoop. 1,483 spi density, so the satin fills on the fur sections come out crisp without being stiff. I use cutaway stabiliser on all cat designs this detailed because the density pulls on the backing otherwise. One customer asked me about hooping fleece with this one and I told em to use a topping layer aswell to stop the pile from eating the fine linework around the eyes.

Run it on a white quilting cotton or a natural linen and the 15 colours really pop. The teal hat colour is particularly vibrant on light fabric. And because the directional fill stitches on each cat go at slightly different angles, the three of them look visually separate even without outlines in between. Pop it on a tote bag and people always ask about it.

Add this to a zip pouch for a cat lover gift, stitch it onto a canvas tote, or use it as the centrepiece of a cushion cover for a kids bedroom. The 3.51 inch size works on baby onesies without needing a jumbo hoop. Best results on woven cotton or canvas with a firm cutaway backing underneath.
