Made this floral range last february when alot of my customers were asking for bold statement botanicals rather than the dainty sketchy ones. This poppy is one of the stronger designs in that batch. Three colours only, deep crimson for the petals, near-black for the centre, and a light background fill that ties it together. The directional satin runs outward from the middle, so when its hooped on a dense canvas or thick cotton the petals almost look dimensional.
Seven sizes in the pack, running from 3.13 inches wide up to 6.71 inches, and stitch counts go from 18,892 up to 44,820 at the largest. And honestly the bigger versions are where this one really shines, the density of 138 holds up well at scale without pulling or puckering. Pair it with a cutaway stabiliser on stretchy materials and the underlay will keep everything anchored. Skip the tearaway on anything that moves, it just wont register cleanly.
One customer messaged me about using the 5-in detail on a tote bag and it came out realy clean, she said she was suprised how solid the centre looked without any extra underlay passes. Im glad it worked out that way because I spent abit of time getting the density just right on that zone. Best to run a test swatch before committing to the final fabric if youre doing a light-coloured linen, the bobbin thread can ghost through if the topping isnt set. Holler at me if a file format gives you trouble and Ill swap it out for whichever version your machine needs.

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.
