Big curving vine trail with around twelve butterflies scattered along the stems, varying in size from tiny ones at the tail end up to bigger ones near the middle of the swirl. Between the butterflies are little leaf curls and tendrils which fill the negative space nicely. The whole shape sweeps in an S curve so the eye follows from top corner down to the bottom point.
Its just one colour, plain black, no fills, everything done in light density satin and fine running lines. Total stitch count is low for the size, theres just 5,253 stitches at the smallest 3.39x3.51 inches. Density sits around 225 spi gives is genuinely light, so the fabric breathes underneath and the design doesnt feel stiff.
Ping me if the file doesnt load right. I get a fair bunch of customers using this on the back yoke of denim jackets, my favourite layout was a customer who stitched it climbing up the side of a cream linen pillow case last spring. The flowing direction really works diagonal across a pocket or sleeve.
Comes in 5 sizes, the largest is 7.26x7.51 inches which fills a jacket back or a tote face. Smallest at 3.39x3.51 inches sits nicely on a shirt pocket or as a sleeve accent. Even the largest version doesnt feel chunky since the narrow S shape keeps things slim.
Stitch on light coloured woven cotton, linen, denim, chambray. Avoid dark navy and black since the silhouette will vanish. Use a tearaway stabiliser for woven cotton, mesh cutaway for tee jersey. Black 40wt polyester holds up best in the wash, rayon works too but its a touch fade prone on dark wash cycles. Drop a chat message if the punch needs tweaking and Ill update it.

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.
