Its a little wildflower meadow stretched into a horizontal strip. On the far left a red poppy with a full layered look, then an orange marigold, a teal-blue cornflower, a white daisy with a yellow-orange centre, a light blue cosmos-style bloom, and another red poppy at the right end. Between them theres a mix of dark stems, small scatter berries, purple aster heads, green leaves at different angles, and tiny filler buds. It reads like a real meadow edge rather than a tidy arranged bouquet.
7 thread colors: red, white, dark magenta, aqua, green, orange, and black for the outlines. Stitch counts run from 11,707 at the 2.32-inch height up to 19,767 at the 3.87-inch height, 4 sizes total. Plan the 6 color changes before you hoop, theyre straightforward but worth sequencing. Those 65 trims in the mid size tell you how many individual flower and leaf elements are packed in. Hoop on medium cutaway stabiliser and use a soluble topping on terry or textured fabric to stop the satin fills sinking into the loops. Use tearaway on woven linen or cotton fabric.
I get quite a few orders for this one from people doing tea towel sets and summer tote bags, and this past spring was the busiest its ever been, I had a week in april where it outsold everything else in the floral section. Stitch it along the lower edge of a linen tea towel for the most natural result. Run it across the base panel of a canvas tote for a neat border stripe. It also works on a summer skirt or dress hem, especially if you use all 4 sizes in a graduated repeat.

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.
