Solid green satin fill all the way through, this aint an outline design. One small five-petal floral bloom sits on the far left and from there the band trails rightward in overlapping pointed botanical leaves with a few curling tendrils thrown in between. Bright kelly green thread runs the whole composition. Theres no black linework, no second colour anywhere. Reads almost like a herb sprig laid flat.
Six sizes total. Smallest is just over 3 inches wide at 1,711 stitches, biggest is 8 inches at 4,964 stitches. Its a heavier stitch count than your typical line-art border because every leaf has full directional satin fill underneath. Density sits around 553 per square inch and that really does build a textured surface you can feel with your fingertips. Properly chunky.
If youre using the larger sizes its worth grabbing a quality cutaway stabiliser, the dense satin areas need solid backing or theyll pucker on you. Hoop tight and float a sheet of wash-away film over any knit fabric to keep the leaves from sinking into the surface. A 75/11 embroidery needle and rayon or polyester thread in a vivid leafy green gives the best sheen. Avoid napped fabric like fleece or terry, the texture will fight the directional stitching.
I drew this one with herb-garden kitchen gifts in mind, last spring a customer used the 6-inch length on a row of pot-holder fronts for her mums veggie-garden housewarming. She sent photos. Real clean. Stitch the smallest size on canvas tote pockets, or run the 8-inch along the bib panel of a chef apron. If the satin areas pucker on your first run, dont panic, just drop a fresh cutaway under 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.
