This one takes the shelf concept further by adding context below the tools. Theres a brick wall section rendered under the shelf bar, built up in simple running stitch blocks, and the tools above sit heavier and chunkier than the slimmer outline versions. A paint roller leads the row on the left, which is different from the other tool designs, then a screwdriver, wrench, hammer, and a handsaw angled to the right.
The fill is bold on each tool head, no thin outlines here, each piece is properly filled so it reads as solid and substantial on the fabric. At the largest 5.83-inch size youre working with 12,784 stitches spread across a wider frame, reasonable for the scale. Smallest at 2.72 inches comes in at 5,128 stitches, and the brickwork running below still holds at that compact size. Tape fusible cutaway behind canvas and the brick section will lie flat without bunching.
5 sizes from 2.72 to 5.83 inches wide. Back everything with a stable cutaway, especially if youre working on a stiff garment panel where you want zero movement while stitching. Use a medium cutaway for garments and a sew-in tearaway for things like bags or patches where you need the backing removable later on.
I had a customer stitch this on a garage apron for his dad last year and it came out really clean on the heavy canvas. Its one of those workshop pieces that reads like an actual garage wall corner, not just a floating collection of tools. Text me through the shop chat if the brickwork isnt laying flat and Ill take a look.

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.
