The duck has a flower crown and its very pleased about it. The duckling stands on a small patch of grass, head tilted ever so slightly forward like its just noticed something on the ground. Fluffy yellow body with those irregular lighter patches on the wing area where the feathers start coming through. The flower crown sits across the top of the head, 3 lavender-pink blossoms with green leaves tucking in behind. Classic rural spring image done with alot of textile care.
Feather rendering is the thing that sets this one apart from flat cartoon versions Ive seen elsewhere. The fills use fine directional stitching so the texture reads like actual down, not a solid yellow block. Orange-brown beak, a single small dark eye, feet in warm tan. Ten colours in the file including 3 distinct greens for the grass and leaf details. Five sizes from 3.5 through to 7 so it fits everything from a bib to a quilting square.
I get a bunch of orders from country gift shops and farm-themed event planners around easter and spring. One customer last april bought 9 sizes worth of placement on linen tea towels for a farm-to-table restaurant gift shop. She sent me photos and it looked genuinely lovely on the oatmeal linen. Drop me a note if ya want to know which size worked best for that application and ill pass on the detail.
Lay tearaway under woven cotton and linen, it handles the moderate stitch count fine at 31k max. Avoid hooping jersey on this one if you can, the fine feather stitching needs stability or the details blur. Pick a pale ground, cream, oatmeal, butter or sage linen all work well. Skip saturated colour backgrounds because the soft yellow body washes into anything too vivid.
Pair it with a small name or initial below for personalised gifts. The 5-inch sits perfectly centred on a pocket. The biggest 7.5-inch reads well on a tote bag face or quilt block. Add a single French knot in white on the eye highlight for extra texture if youre finishing by hand after the machine pass.

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.
