This one is big and bold and honestly a lil bit electric. The main bloom is this massive peony shape, petals layered out like a ruffled skirt, and every layer is a different colour. Mustard yellow in the centre, hot pink wrapping around the outside, deep purple and lavender filling in the inner ring. Its the kind of floral that doesnt whisper, it just goes for it.
Underneath the bloom the stems curve in teal and turquoise, very botanical and structural. On the lower right theres a second smaller bud opening up, same colour family but tighter, like its still coming out. Silver grey underlay runs behind the outer petals and it softens the whole thing just enough. 9 colours total, 8 colour changes, so my digitising suite did alot of digitising work to get the petal layers reading as distinct without muddying the colours together.
Stitch count runs 19k on the small 3.51-inch size and all the way up to 49k on the 7.5-inch. That bigger size is very satisfying to watch come off the machine, the petal density is the centrepiece there. Use a cutaway stabiliser underneath on any fabric, even stable cotton twill, because those big tatami petal fills need backing that wont give.
I made this last year for a textile art gallery sale in may and a customer who teaches hand-embroidery workshops asked if she could customise it onto velvet cushion covers for a studio event. She stitched 3 of em on cream cotton velvet and they looked like something from a gallery shop. Reach out if the file loads funny or a colour skips on your machine and Ill check the sequence right away.
Pop it on navy, charcoal, cream, or sage. Skip white because the pale grey underlay stitches blend in. Best results on a 7x7 hoop or larger for the big size.

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.
