This is the explosion blast design, its wide, its flat, and it hits hard. Five colours: flame orange fills the main burst body, bright yellow runs the outer spike rays, deep red sits at the hot centre core, black outlines hold the spike edges crisp, and white punches in the central highlight dots. The overall shape is roughly circular but the spike rays jag outward unevenly which is what makes it read like a real blast rather than a decorative starburst.
Those outer points are done in satin columns with directional stitch angles that radiate from the centre outward, it really does look like the thread is flying out of a point. At the full 7.49 inches wide the design runs 32,141 stitches, the density is honest at 657 so its not gonna choke your machine even on the heaviest burst section. The smallest size at 3.49 inches wide sits at 13,952 stitches, manageable on most home machines.
I sold a batch to a small film production company last november, they needed patches for halloween crew jackets on a low-budget action short they were shooting. They stitched em on black denim and used em as gag props, send me photos after the wrap party and honestly the patches looked great on screen. The flame orange against black denim is a strong combination.
Run this on black or very dark charcoal fabric, the orange and yellow flame colours need that contrast to pop. Skip light or pale fabrics completely, the design loses every bit of its energy on cream or white. Pop the big 7.49-inch on a jacket back, use the mid 5-inch on a hoodie chest, drop the small 3.49 on a cap front panel or a canvas patch badge. Stitch at standard speed, the satin columns on those rays are long but the density is moderate so your tension should hold fine.
Back it with a tearaway stabiliser on woven denim or canvas, cutaway if you're hooping fleece or any knit. Email me if the spike ray outlines look broken on your stitch-out and Ill send you a revised file 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.
