This is the floral-crown ghost, not the same as the simpler ghost I have with ribbon accents. The crown is fully digitised botanical flowers: small pink, coral, and lavender blooms with green leaf fills sitting across the head. Seven colours, 17457 stitches, density 250, digitised in Wilcom. Thats a high stitch count for a 3.09 inch design, but its driven entirely by the petal detail up top, narrow satin sections that need good density to hold their shape cleanly.
Use cutaway stabiliser on this one without question. At density 250 and 17457 stitches the pull is significant and tearaway wont give you enough base stability. Hoop your fabric really firmly, any looseness and the white satin body will ripple at the edges. Run underlay on the white ghost fill first, let the machine complete that full layer before the top satin goes down. Youve got seven colour stops, so count through them before starting and pre-thread if your machine allows it. Use a 75/11 needle and keep your bobbin tension snug, a loose bobbin on white satin shows on light fabrics. Dont skip the topping film on any textured fabric.
I had a customer write me a few weeks ago saying shed stitched this on a set of halloween pillowcases for her daughters room and it came out looking kinda like a proper textile print rather than embroidery, which is the best thing anyone can say. People are also doing it on sweatshirts, treat bags, and on 5-inch hoops as small framed wall pieces. Avoid very thin cotton lawn, the density will drag it. Stick to mid-weight quilting cotton, canvas, or a firm knit with proper stabilisation. The floral colours on a white body give this version a genuinely distinct look compared to plain ghost designs in the catalogue.

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.
