The dog outline is just the container here. Inside its completely packed with botanical flowers, big hibiscus-type blooms in red and gold, leafy stems in deep green, black centres and filler shapes all the way through. The silhouette reads as a dog at a glance but up close its basically a garden. Medium breed, standing alert, tail up, nose forward. No face detail, no background, its all in the floral fill.
Hand-tweaked in Wilcom EmbroideryStudio, 4 colours, 5 sizes. Stitch count runs from 23,389 starts compact and reaches 53,587 on the full 7.5 inch version so this is a dense piece. Density is 1004 which means youre gonna want a good cutaway stabiliser here, especially on cotton and canvas where the design can pull without solid backing. The flowers use satin stitching on the petals with directional fill, so the hooped tension needs to be right or the outlines wont sit cleanly. Slow your machine to around 600-700 spm for the larger fills.
My customers tend to send this to family members who have dogs of similar build, a Labrador or boxer type matches the silhouette pretty well. One customer ordered it for a series of canvas pouches as gifts, each one the same design in a different thread colour scheme. Works brilliant on black denim, forest green cotton, or any dark solid where those warm flower colours really pop out. Skip light cream or white fabrics because the botanical colours dont have enough contrast against pale backgrounds.
Ping me on chat if the file gives you any trouble and Ill get it sorted.

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.
