Heres the teacher border frame and its built for adding ya teachers name in the gap. Two parallel black banner bars stack horizontally with an empty middle gap where ya stitch a custom name. Four classroom icons sit across the top of the lower bar, all glued together visually like theyre resting on the shelf. Coffee cup with steam curls. Yellow pencil with the pink eraser tip. Red apple with green leaf. Orange ruler with the inch markings.
The icon work is detailed. Coffee cup gets soft blue and brown cel-shading on the cup, steam curls float up in fine outline. The pencil shaft has wood grain detail running the length of it. Red apple uses gradient shading from cherry red into deep crimson with a glossy white highlight on the side. Thirteen colours total, all the school staples. Density on the full 7.5 size hits about 27k stitches.
If youre after a simple teacher gift thats what I keep recommending to customers. Leading into back to school an elementary art teacher kept ordering the frame for clipboard pouches. One customer ordered the 6 inch back in september for a teacher appreciation tote bag, she dropped the teachers name between the bars in chunky satin and it suprised the recipient.
Stitch on cream cotton, soft white tote canvas, butter yellow apron, sage school spirit shirt. Pop the 5 inch on the front of a cream linen tote with a personal name set in that middle gap. Run the 4 inch on a black coffee mug cosy. Stitch the 7.5 inch on a back-to-school book bag back panel. Skip dark navy or black coz those satin bar shapes vanish on dark grounds.
Density runs medium across the icons so use medium-weight cutaway stabiliser, mesh works fine on cotton totes. Add tearaway topping over the small icons if your fabric has any nap. Hoop firm coz the icon detail wont forgive a sloppy hoop. Best results come adding a name through a separate lettering pack of ya choice.

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.
