This one has more going on than it first looks. The inner ring uses tulip-bud shapes, the kind where the top is rounded and slightly open, sitting above a short stem. Those buds connect outward into longer almond-shaped leaves that alternate between pointing up and pointing to the sides. Then at the outer edge the whole thing terminates in sharp arrow-tip points with fine parallel hatching lines running inside them. Like a compass rose crossed with a botanical print.
All in black outline, no fill, which means white fabric shows through every petal and gap and thats exactly what makes the line work so readable. Stitch it on pale grey, off-white or natural linen and the contrast stays strong. The structure is dense, more detail packed in per square inch than a simpler mandala, so it carries well at larger sizes where you can really see the bud and arrow geometry.
Five sizes from about 5 inches up to 9 inches. Stitch count runs from around 28k to just over 52k so its on the heavier side for a line-art piece, which is down to how many individual outline paths Wilcom tracked in the digitising. Just last week a customer sent me a photo of the 7-inch version on cream cotton canvas, razor sharp with zero thread breaks on a mid-range Brother machine, and she said it was the cleanest line-art result she'd gotten from any design she'd bought this year.
Pin-baste or spray-tack a double layer of water-soluble topping over linen or textured fabric before stitching so outline threads dont sink into the weave. Skip the topping and the fine hatching lines lose their crispness on anything with visible texture. Use a sharp 75/11 needle and drop your top tension one click if the curves start pulling.

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.
