The whole bird is basically one continuous line that loops and crosses through the body without ever really lifting. Long thin beak stretching to the right, the body formed by this looping black stroke that kinda wraps around itself, and then the wings open out into a soft blush pink satin fill behind it. Its minimal but it reads instantly as a hummingbird. No fuss, no decoration.
Two colours only. Black and blush. The density on the line work is light at 369 so this stitches out quickly and the thread usage is genuinely low compared to complex fills. Stitch count runs from 5,743 on the smallest to 15,434 at the top 7.5-inch size. The blush pink wing fill uses a light directional satin so theres no puckering on the wing edges even when you hoop it tight. Its a pleasantly short run even at the bigger sizes.
I made this one after getting repeated requests from my customers running homeware and lifestyle gift shops who wanted something for white cotton tote bags that wouldnt look too busy. This is the one. Last spring a customer who runs a wellness boutique ordered a full tote run and messaged me to say her customers kept asking where the print was from. I get messages asking if it customises well aswell and honestly yes, the black line element means you can swap the blush for sage or terracotta if your brand colour is different and it still sings.
Best fabric is white or cream cotton, natural linen, light grey jersey. The blush wings disappear on any fabric darker than mid-grey so stick to pale grounds. Tearaway stabiliser works fine on woven cotton, cutaway on jersey or knit. Hoop it centred, the asymmetric beak throws it off if you guess the placement.

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.
