This is the classic full-circle laurel wreath, the one thats been showing up on everything from ancient coins to modern logos for about two thousand years. Both branches start at the bottom where the stems cross and curve up and around to meet at the top, leaves spaced evenly all the way round. And every leaf is solid filled satin stitch, so at the 7-inch you really see the texture properly. No outline, no gaps, just clean dark green leaves sitting flush on the fabric.
Its one colour and one thread change which makes it really quick to stitch. The single dark green keeps it versatile too. Works equally well on a white shirt, a cream linen piece, dark navy, or even a black tote if you want something a bit bolder. The symmetry is tight, Wilcom EmbroideryStudio handles that kind of mirror balance well and it shows in the final stitch-out.
Last spring a customer asked if the internal gap was big enough for a three-letter monogram at 5 inches and the answer was yes with room to spare, about 2.5 inches of clear circle inside the leaves. Back with a woven stabiliser on shirt weight fabric. Pop a cutaway behind stretchy knits. Hoop snug so the round shape doesnt pull oval. And skip very dark fabrics unless you want the green to read almost invisible, dark navy is the limit before you loose the leaf detail.

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.
