Two hearts sit inside each other, drawn with that loose hand-sketched outline style where the lines dont quite close perfectly at the bottom. The outer heart is a bit larger and both use a thick satin-line stitch so they look bold and clean from a distance. No fill inside at all. Just the outlines and the empty space between them, which is what gives it that open, airy feeling.
Then off to the right of the hearts, nine small solid red mini hearts fan out in a scattered cluster. They graduate from tiny near the heart base up to bigger ones toward the top right. Looks like the hearts are releasing little love notes into the air. Its a very specific visual and one that customers are really drawn to. This past February a customer told me she put the 6-inch on a pillowcase set and her husband genuinely thought she bought them from a boutique shop.
Two colours only, which keeps this one really quick to stitch and easy on the bobbin. Black for the main outline hearts, red for the floating minis. 1 colour change, 12 trims across every size. The lightest size runs about 6k stitches and the biggest comes in just under thirteen-and-a-half thousand. So its not a heavy stitch count, even at 8 inches. Ive stitched this at all five sizes and honestly the 5-inch is my favourite, it reads cleanly without being too dominant.
Pop it on white or pale grey fabric for maximum contrast. Works brilliantly on a light cotton tea towel, a linen pillowcase, or the front of a plain canvas tote. For woven fabrics run a firm woven stabiliser in the hoop and keep the tension even so those thin outline stitches dont drag or pucker. Skip knit fabric for this one, the open outline style needs a stable base or the lines look wobbly. Drop me a quick chat note if anything stitches out off and Ill sort it same day.

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.
