Sketched this layout as a lil word-cloud of affirmations orbiting a big bold "you are" in the centre. Theres "strong" running vertically down the left side, "important" going vertical on the right, then brave, loved, kind, capable, worthy all packed in around the middle in a bunch of different type styles. Two lil red outline hearts float at the top, and theyre stitched in red outline so they dont look heavy.
Its 2 colours and the split is really satisfying: black does all the serif and rotated words while red handles the centre text plus the hearts. Thats what makes the centre jump out on a tote or hoodie at 5 feet away. Youll see the impact immediately once its hooped up.
Specs: 3 hoop sizes at 4, 5, and 7 inch wide. Stitches run 9,834 at the smallest up to 17,771 at 7 inch. Color changes 1, trims 71 to 94 depending on size. Digitised in digitising tools with satin columns on the large block letters and a tighter density run on the smaller script words. Run a light tearaway on quilting cotton or linen. For fleece or sweatshirt fabric a cutaway is the better call so the dense red centre satin stays anchored. Add topping if youre hooping any textured knit.
One customer wrote me this March to say she stitched the 4-inch version onto a 5-year-old's backpack and the mum cried at pickup. Job done if you ask me. Ping me if youre having any sizing questions.

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.
