Asymmetric is the word here, this floral border line art isnt mirrored or evenly repeated. Two five-petal flowers cluster on the left side at 1,426 stitches wrapped in fanned green leaf shapes, then the design tapers rightward into pure acanthus leaf scrolls with no blooms at all on that end. Gives the whole band a kinda sketched-in-one-go feel, like the artist drew left to right and just kept the pen moving.
Five available sizes. Width starts at four inches and runs to eight, stitch counts range from 1,426 up to 2,256. One thread colour, black, no changes. Density runs around 256 per square inch, that keeps the line open and breathable so it wont punch heavy holes in delicate fabrics.
Stitch on cotton, linen, lightweight twill, or a smooth ponte knit, theyll all hold the line well. Pop a tearaway stabiliser underneath for woven fabric, swap to soft cutaway when the ground cloth is jersey or any other knit fabric. Use 60wt black thread and a fresh 70/10 needle, this gives you the sharpest line edge. Skip heavy waffle weaves and fleece, the linework gets swallowed by the texture and you lose the leaf scrolls on the right side.
I had one customer order this for valentines day stitching in 2024, she did the six-inch run across the front of cotton napkins for her mums dinner party, said the asymmetric flow felt more modern than a centred design. Stitch the smallest along a pillow case opening or use the long size as a hem on a christmas tree skirt panel.
What people are using this design for
A starting point. The design works for plenty more than just this list, this is what folks have stitched it onto most.
- Modern napkin borders for dinner partiesStitch the 6-inch length on each white cotton napkin, the flowers on the left and scrolls on right looks proper modern
- Pillowcase opening trimRun the smallest size along the open edge of a pillow case, keeps the trim from feeling too symmetrical or stiff
- Christmas tree skirt panel hemsPlace the 8-inch run on a christmas tree skirt panel, the asymmetric flow breaks up the usual centred holiday motif
- Tea towel asymmetric corner accentAdd the 5-inch to one corner of a tea towel rather than centered, leaves the rest of cloth clean
- Kitchen apron bottom hemStitch the 4-inch on a chef apron front hem, leaf-only end faces the pocket side and the flowers face outward
- Curtain tieback fabric loopsEmbroider the smallest size onto fabric curtain tiebacks, mirror em so the bloom side faces the window glass
- Quilt block sashing variationUse the 6-inch as a sashing accent between quilt blocks, the asymmetric design adds movement to the patchwork

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.
