A proper complex fill design at 520 density, nothing minimal about it. The lettering sits centre-stage in chunky bold strokes and around it sits a ring of botanical elements, sunflower petals at the top and bottom, leaf sprigs branching out from the sides, the whole thing organised into a roughly square composition that reads well as a patch or a centred chest piece. On thinner cotton Ive added a second layer of cutaway under the first since that kind of thread weight needs a locked base to prevent puckering around the leaf edges.
Back it with poly-mesh under, not tearaway. Ive stitched this on a heavyweight canvas and on a medium denim and both handled it fine. The stitch count maxes out at 28051 on the 7.51-inch version which will take your machine a good few minutes to run, so dont start it five minutes before you need to leave. Drop me a chat if your bobbin tension is acting up and I can troubleshoot with you. Add topping film over the floral sections if your fabric has any pile to keep the satin petals from sinking in.
A customer last autumn brought a batch of tote bags to a school fundraiser with this design stitched on every one of them. She did the 5-in size for natural canvas bags and they sold out at the first table. That kind of feedback is what makes me keep digitising designs like this. Pair it with a hooped cotton tote or a garden apron and it looks like something you picked up at a boutique. Stitch the small 3.51-inch on a patch, iron-on backing on the reverse, and it becomes a jacket accent thats genuinely kinda special. Send a chat if the satin needs tweaking and Ill check the punch.

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.
