Mocked up this evil eye design for the crowd that wants something kinda bold and a lil bit mystical without it being overly complicated. The eye itself is all rings, cobalt blue at the outer edge fading in through lighter aqua tones toward the centre, with a jet black pupil and a tiny cream highlight that gives it that wet, almost glossy look. Underneath the eye is where it gets interesting: these long drips hang down in like 5 or 6 different colours, orange, magenta, dark green, yellow, aqua. actually gives it that street-art drip effect but stitched out in thread.
industry-grade software handled the digitising here. The concentric ring areas use a tight satin fill with directional density shifts so each colour band looks distinct even at the smaller sizes. The drips below are kinda just long tapered satin columns, but the sequencing matters a lot because 15 colour changes in the wrong order creates jump threads right across the iris. The file handles this correctly so you shouldnt see any issues there.
5 sizes from 2.50 x 3.50 inches to 5.37 x 7.50 inches with stitch counts between 10,467 and 27,437. Use a medium-weight cutaway stabiliser on a black tee, thats non-negotiable with this density. Avoid light-coloured fabric unless youre going for a contrast look, the cobalt really pops on black or dark navy. Add a water-soluble topping over the eye rings on any pique or ribbed knit to stop the satin stitches from sinking into the texture. Skip the topping on a smooth tightly-woven tee and itll come out clean.
One customer wanted to customise the drip colours to match their brand palette, and that worked fine since each drip is its own separate stop in the digitising sequence. Send a chat note if you want to talk through colour swaps or if anything comes up after you stitch it out.

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.
