The daisy itself is as straightforward as daisies get, long narrow white petals radiating out from a dense, almost grainy-textured butter yellow centre, the kind that looks like someone dragged a dry brush across it rather than filled it solid. Its a nice looking centre, more interesting than the usual flat satin disk. But then the splash behind it is where this gets fun. Four irregular blotch shapes fan out around the flower in sky blue, pale amber, muted orange, and a creamy off-white, like someone flicked a paint brush at it from four different directions. None of the splashes are the same shape, none of them are perfectly placed. Thats the look.
The file was digitised through embroidery software, and the splash sections use a loose fill at lower density compared to the flower itself, the density overall is 762 but its unevenly distributed, heavier on the petals and centre, lighter on the splashes. That contrast is intentional. Stitch count goes from 15,013 at the smallest up to 39,060 at the 6.84-inch wide size, so the larger hoops have a realy substantial run time. You get 6 colour changes and seven stops which is manageable for a moderately complex design.
Best on a natural or kraft-coloured canvas where the sky blue and amber splashes read clearly without competing with the background. I ran this on a cream cotton tote last month and the off-white splash nearly disappeared against the base fabric, suprising how much the contrast matters. On white fabric use that cream thread or swap it to a light grey so it shows. The blue and orange splashes come through fine on almost anything.
Use cutaway stabiliser for soft fabric. The splash fill areas have irregular edges that can lift on tearaway, specially at the larger sizes where youre dealing with longer fill runs. Add topping on any textured surface so the satin petals dont sink. At the 3.19-inch size the splash details shrink down but they still read as splashes rather than just noise. The smallest size on a canvas badge or patch.
Text me a photo when you stitch this one, I want to see what fabrics people are trying it on.

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.
