Set this one up around the wreath-as-a-frame idea rather than just a standalone snowman. The circular wreath is made of bare winter branches in brown, woven with green holly and pine sprigs, dotted with red holly berries and finished at the top with a wide red ribbon bow. Sitting inside the wreath, peeking out from behind the lower branches, is a small chibi-style snowman. Hes got oversized round eyes with green irises, a carrot nose in orange, a red santa hat with a white pompom, a grey knitted-looking scarf, and two little brown antler arms reaching out sideways. A red poinsettia flower sits in front at the base of the wreath and three gold star accents float in the gaps around it.
9 colours: white for the snowman body, red for the hat, bow and poinsettia, green for the foliage, brown for branches and antler arms, gold for the stars, orange for the carrot nose, grey for the scarf, and tan for the antler tips. Stitch count is on the high side, 23,681 at the petite 3.5 in size and 53,494 at 7.5 inches. Density at 1049 is the highest in this range by a long way. Run a firm cutaway stabiliser, dont use tearaway, and slow the machine to around 600 spm on the dense wreath sections. Use a topping on any textured fabric.
One customer ordered this every christmas season since I listed it, and honestly I can see why its so popular. A customer wrote me last december after stitching it on a cream throw cushion at the 7 inch size, said it looked like something from a boutique christmas shop. Its brilliant on red, cream or forest green base fabric. Avoid navy, the dark brown branches disappear. Try it on white cotton canvas first to check your colour order before moving to a project item.
Any problem with the files just reach out and Ill sort 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.
