So yeah, its a frog in love. Sits there all round and happy with this fat red heart clutched against its chest, eyes closed in that blissful half-moon shape, and three tiny hearts bouncing off wire antennae on top of its head. Long cartoon lashes finish the look. Its a bit ridiculous and thats the whole point.
Body is done in two greens, a medium base and a brighter highlight shade, so the frog has just enough dimension without looking complicated. The heart is a bold flat red with a lighter pink fill in the centre to give it that slight puffed-up Valentine look. Black outlines the whole thing cleanly. 5 colours total, 4 colour changes, so fairly easy on most machines.
Stitch count is between 7,036 and 20,534 depending on size, light-to-medium range the whole way. Use a tearaway on woven fabric for most sizes and youll be fine. Pop the smaller sizes on felt for hoop art since the green satin really pops off light backgrounds. Avoid anything too dark for the background or the pink heart centre gets swallowed. Skip polyester fleece on the bigger sizes, the satin fill loses definition on pile.
Back in february one customer stitched the 5-inch size on a pale yellow sweatshirt as a Valentine gift and it was genuinely one of the nicest uses Ive seen for this design. Good on white, mint, and light grey too. Biggest size at 7.51 inches really works on a cushion cover where you want the design to carry the whole piece. Ping me if the file doesnt load right and Ill sort it.

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.
