My friend who teaches at a local yoga studio grabbed this last month for her end-of-term class gift bags and I honestly wasnt suprised she chose it. Its that chunky 70s retro font in teal, the kind with big round bellies on every letter, stacked four lines tall with two lil daisy blooms sitting either side of "me". Doesnt sound like much on paper but once its stitched the satin outline catches light differently to the tatami fill body and you get this almost three-dimensional look without any crazy density trouble.
The density sits at 643 so the letters dont pucker on jersey or fleece, which is where most people want to put it. Use a cutaway stabiliser, not tear-away, the lettering has alot of satin coverage and tear-away wont hold the edges clean on cotton twill either. The 4-inch size fits neat on a yoga mat bag without crowding anything, and stitches out at around 14,000 stitches which means your machine wont labour over it.
Hoop your garment snug before you start and centre the design on the chest or back yoke. Pop a water-soluble topping over canvas or denim so the loops dont sink into the weave. The daisy centres are small satin fills so keep your bobbin tension balanced or you will get lil loops coming through on the back. Pick a good 40wt thread in a bright teal colour and the whole thing stitches out really clean. Avoid pressing directly on the lettering after youre done, use a pressing cloth, the satin surface flattens with too much direct heat.
Let me know if the base layer peeks through up top.

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.
