Heres the floral giraffe and shes a real charmer. Soft caramel tan giraffe head and neck looking right at the camera. Big chocolate brown spots dot the body in irregular shapes, the way real spots actually fall. Long fluttery black eyelashes curl up off both eyes. Theres a little pink nose, the ears flop sideways with a peachy inner shading.
Across her brow she wears a flower crown. Three soft pink five-petal blooms sit centred between the ossicones, with a brighter yellow-centred orange flower in the middle and two more pink ones either side. Behind her ossicones, two leafy green fronds sweep up like little antlers made of laurel. Thirteen colours total, the most density goes into the spotted neck and the floral crown work, and ya can tell the digitising team really cared.
One customer wrote me in september asking for a giraffe design that wasnt cartoony. She wanted something her teen niece could put on a denim jacket without looking too kid. So I leaned into the lash detail and the soft floral crown. Since then I get messages aswell from baby-shower mums, safari-themed birthday party planners and small-shop owners customising nursery cushions. Yep ya can scale her down to 3.5 inch for a chest pocket too.
Pop her on cream linen, soft white waffle weave, oatmeal canvas or pale sage cotton, theyll all wear well. The pink and orange crown punches hardest on warm light neutrals. Stitch the 5-inch height on a baby muslin swaddle corner for a hospital welcome gift. Run the 7.5-inch on the front of a denim tote and let her neck stretch up the panel. Skip charcoal or black ground, the soft pink petals lose against dark fabric and the eyelash detail dissapears.
Density is friendly given the colour count. 50473 stitches at the largest, just over 19k at the smallest. Use a tearaway stabiliser on woven cotton, switch to a soft mesh cutaway if youre running her on a knit baby tee. Itll behave. Hoop firm, the dappled neck wants stable ground for the satin spot edges to sit right.

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.
