Five bands arching from one side to the other, not in rainbow colours, nothing like that. This is a boho palette, earthy and muted. The outer band is terracotta rust, then warm mustard, sage green in the centre, dusty rose, and the innermost a warm cream. At each base end the bands break into short tassel fringe drops hanging loosely downward. Tiny wildflower sprigs sit at the feet of the arch, a couple of small stems with even smaller blooms, nothing elaborate just enough to anchor the shape at the ground. The whole thing reads handmade in the best way and its the kind of modern bohemian style thats been genuinely popular in nursery design for the last few years.
Density at 766 is moderate. This design comes in 5 sizes from a compact 1.48 by 2.01 inches right up to 4.43 by 6.01 inches. Stitch count ranges from 4,152 at the smallest to 20,401 at the largest. The tassel fringe sections use closely spaced satin stitches set at slight angles to one another so they look like individual threads hanging, not a solid block. The rainbow bands themselves are tatami fill with directional runs following the curve so the texture reads as a smooth arc rather than a flat grid. Hooped on a firm woven cotton with medium cutaway stabiliser this sits very flat. On fleece or minky youll want cutaway and a water-soluble topping because the band outlines need to bite into the pile evenly.
Honestly this is one of my steady sellers for the nursery market. One customer who does custom baby gift baskets orders this design regularly, she stitches it on cream muslin swaddle panels in batches and says its one of her most requested options. Last month alone she messaged asking for 8 more copies which made me realise it was really working for her. Email me if you hit any snags with the download and Ill sort the file replacement out same day.
Cream, oatmeal and natural linen fabrics are where this really sings. The muted earthy palette on white can look a bit washed out unless youre going for that intentional fade look. A warm sand background makes the terracotta pop without changing the mood. Avoid synthetic shiny fabrics, the tatami fill on those coloured bands looks best on matte wovens where the thread has some texture to settle into. Pick cutaway weight based on your fabric, oatmeal linen is fine on medium, denim needs the heavier side.
Email me if anything about the download doesnt work and Ill get it sorted for you right away.

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.
