Two dragons, mirrored, facing each other with their necks curved in toward the centre and tails spiralling out to the sides. Wings partially open. Its reads more like heraldic emblem than scary beast, which is what I was going for. The scale texture isnt done with literal individual scales but with directional fill changes that suggest the body armour, so youre not stitching every single scale outline.
5 colours give you the full build from base tone through the teal highlights on the body to gold accents on the wings and spine. The outlining thread pulls it together cleanly. 9 sizes, smallest is 3 inches wide and the largest goes to 6.44 inches. Stitch count ranges from about 11,700 up to 30,600. Thats a wide range so theres a size for whether youre doing a small chest badge or a full back panel.
Text me if youre not sure which size works for your placement, I can usually advise quickly. One customer stitched the largest on the back of a black bomber last year and suprisingly it looked genuinely high end rather than craft-made. Ive seen it look great on dark jackets, bags and cloaks.
Use cutaway stabiliser on all fabric weights for this one, the wing sections have satin columns that curl at the edges if theyre not well backed. Hoop tight and run at medium machine speed. The mirrored placement means any hooping error shows up doubled so dont rush it.
Black, midnight navy and deep charcoal let the teal and gold tones read really well. Skip anything pale or busy patterned because the detailed areas need clean contrast to show at their best.Text me if the file gives you trouble and Ill sort it out fast.

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.
