Two colours, five sizes, and its a lil bit intimidating when you first look at it but actually very straightforward to run. The whole design is basically a bunch of directional satin wedges meeting at the centre pupil. Theres no applique, no complex underlay tricks, just clean satin fill segments in amber and near-black. Stitch count is 6,904 at 3.58 inches and climbs to 18,278 at 7.62 inches wide.
Because it runs wide and not very tall, at 7.62 by 3.9 inches maximum, this one really shines on cap bills, jacket sleeve panels, and belt patches. A customer who does custom western wear ordered a bunch last summer and stitched them along the sleeve of a canvas ranch jacket in dark amber thread on dark navy canvas. Looked genuinely striking apparently. The density at 615 gives you good coverage and the satin in the iris wedges catches light differently depending on viewing angle, which isnt something every two-colour design can do. Thats the directional stitching doing its job on smooth twill or canvas.
Check your hoop dimensions before you start because the narrow height means you dont need much clearance top and bottom. Two colour changes in the file, clear stops. Run it on denim, canvas, or thick cotton twill for the best satin result. On softer fabrics like fleece use a cutaway stabiliser and keep to the 5 inch or smaller size so the satin stays flat. Stitch it on a test scrap of the same fabric first if youre unsure about thread tension. Pair it with a simple text block or initials below on a jacket for a cohesive custom look. Skip very open-weave fabric, the satin wedges need a tight base to sit flat and clean.

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.
