Sent this one out in August 2024 and honestly the high density surprised me. Its a single-colour design, all dark green, so theres 0 colour changes on the Tajima machine, you literally just hoop it, start the run, and walk away. The tricky bit is the stitch count: 13,674 at the smallest 5.51 x 3.49 inch size climbing all the way up to 19,352 at the 7.51 x 4.75 inch size. Thats kinda just alot of dense fill to push through, so youre gonna want a heavy stabiliser underneath.
Tape a firm cutaway to your hoop before loading anything. On thick cotton canvas or denim that density truly stitches down solid and looks almost like a printed graphic. On lighter fabric like quilting cotton, go 2 layers of cutaway or use a sew-in stabiliser so the fabric doesnt distort under all those satin elements. The chef hat at the top is the densest object in the design, so if anything is gonna pucker it starts there.
Im working with only 3 sizes here, not the usual 5 or 6, so the range is tighter: 5.51 x 3.49, 6.51 x 4.12, and 7.51 x 4.75 inches. All of em are digitising in my main digitising tool with proper underlay built in. One customer last spring told me she used the large size on a heavy canvas apron front and the stitching was so dense it felt almost like a patch rather than regular embroidery. Thats the look its going for.
Best on white, cream, or pale sage backgrounds where the dark green colour really separates from the fabric. Avoid using it on dark green or forest coloured items for obvious reasons. Add a topping on any textured surface.

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.
