Heres the gothic hand holding flowers, drawn in fine-line tattoo style on charcoal cream paper. The hand is shown from the back, fingers slightly curled around three big purple poppy blooms with one bud rising up the back. Long pointed black nails on every finger. Theres a small evil eye on the index, occult symbols on the knuckles, a stitched heart on the wrist and a delicate silver bracelet with a charm at the bottom edge.
Eight thread colours pull the vibe together, the skin sits in a soft tan with charcoal stipple shading, nails go solid black satin, petals layer purple from soft lavender to deep aubergine, leaves run sage green with darker outlines, and the bracelet glints in a thin silver thread.
Density runs heavy on the hand fill and those flower blooms, the line work is super fine satin so directional underlay is critical or the occult symbols wont hold their crispness. Plan for a sturdy cutaway stabiliser, denim or canvas takes this best because the hand needs structure under it. Stitch counts hit 35.3k on the biggest 8.5-inch wide hoop and 16.6k on the smallest, with eight colour shifts across the design.
I get alot of orders for this around halloween from witchy small shops. Last year a customer made twenty for a goth pop-up market, another ordered the 6-inch for a tarot reading altar cloth. Its read aswell on valentines day cards for the dark romantic crowd, plus mystic candle pouches and tarot bag fronts.
Stitch on cream linen black canvas charcoal denim or burgundy velvet for full witchy energy. Skip pale pastel fabric atleast, the dark line work needs a saturated background to feel right. Toss a fast holler when a colour stop reads off, ill swap it fast.

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.
