Worked on this one because I kept getting requests for something that mixes the spooky-cute style with valentines day, and theres not much out there that does it well. Three little round ghosts, 3 thread colours, all holding hearts in different ways, its the same concept from 3 different angles which makes the trio feel cohesive rather than random.
The design runs 13,151 stitches at the small end, 33,787 at the largest. 3 colours, cream-white, black, and red, so theres a clear stop between each. Back with polymesh on jersey or fleece. The cream fill uses satin passes that run at a slight angle so the surface catches light differently to the black outline around each ghost. Hoop on a firm cutaway for any knit base and the results are clean.
People order this for kids tees and its also gone into some Halloween-adjacent gift bags which surprised me at first but makes sense, the ghost element lets it live outside February a bit. One customer used it on a black long-sleeve shirt for a kid who was adamant they wouldnt wear anything heart-themed, and the ghost angle got around that perfectly.
Stitch sizes go 3.5 to 7.51 inches wide. Swap to a microtex 75/11 needle. The white-on-white finish needs a fresh needle to keep the satin crisp, dont skip that if youre doing multiples.

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.
