My niece dropped this one in my messages with no context, just a screenshot and the word 'please.' Once Id stitched it out I understood. Its a unicorn face from the brow up, horn centred and spiralling in teal, wide teardrop eyes in blue with long black lash fans hanging below them. Small aqua snowflakes float at the corners. Nothing pink or pastel, the whole palette is cool blues and aqua with black outlines, which is probably why kids who are done with princess themes still go for it.
Back it with a medium-weight stabiliser before you hoop any knit fabric. The eyes have directional satin fill that can shift on stretchy material without proper backing, and you dont want that happening mid-stitch. Three colours, two changes. Smallest size is 10,513 stitches at 3.51 x 3.47 inches, largest is 24,975 stitches at 7.51 x 7.42 inches. Five sizes total.
Stitch it on white, aqua reads sharply and the black outlines hold the detail all the way through. On light grey fleece the teal pops nicely without the black needing to carry all the contrast. Use a medium stabiliser for fleece too, its not just for knits. Batch it if youre making a set of matching kids pieces, this is a design that pairs well with itself on different items. Drop a note if anything looks off and Ill check the file.

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.
