Heres the thing, I get messages every halloween season asking for a design that's actually funny without being lame. This one is 2 colours, just under 2.51 inches wide and 2.44 high, so it slots into a 3x3 hoop with no drama. At 5,177 stitches and density 131, the thick serif lettering comes out looking really clean with a proper satin fill on each stroke.
But thats the bit that surprises people: that condensed block style digitising in industry-grade software means the letter spacing is already dialled in. Pair tearaway with the stretchy knits because the hooped fabric needs to stay put through those long horizontal satin columns. Nine sizes plus 8 formats, wait, one size actually, and 8 formats across the board. Drop the hoop pressure slightly on lighter cotton to keep the density from pulling.
I had a customer order this for a bunch of her friends as matching halloween shirts last year, said they wore them to a pumpkin patch and got lil comments all day. Pair it with black thread on an orange tee or flip it, white thread on black is equally strong. Use a topping if youre stitching on fluffy fleece so the serifs stay sharp. Ping me a note if you need the file in a different format.

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.
