Theres alot going on colour-wise with this one and thats what makes it stand out from a basic orange blob pumpkin. The body runs 6 thread colours, layered orange and amber tones that add shadow across the lobes so it reads as round and dimensional rather than flat. Then the face cut-outs sit sharp against that orange, the triangular eyes and the wide jagged grin with those uneven fang teeth dropping down. And right inside the mouth and eye edges theres a thin red line, like a glow from inside, which is a nice detail you dont usually see on simpler designs.
The digitising uses directional satin fill that follows each lobe, so the density stays consistent and the thread doesnt pool at the seams between segments. That actually matters on the smaller 2-inch size where bad underlay turns pumpkin ribs into a muddy stripe. Wilcom routed it cleanly. The stem reads properly without needing alot of stitches to get the texture across.
4 sizes from 2 inch up to 5 inch. A customer who does Halloween market stalls messaged me last October saying she ran the 4-inch on a set of cotton canvas pouches and had zero bobbin issues across a 40-piece run. Solid for production work.
Hoop medium cutaway on woven fabrics. Add a water-soluble topping on anything with surface texture. Skip dense knits because the layered satin fill needs a stable base to sit flat. Drop me a note if your file has any trouble and I sort it straight away.

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.
