Three pumpkins stacked on top of each other, tallest one at the bottom working up to the smallest at the top, and every single one has got a different carved face on it. Bottom jack-o-lantern goes with the classic triangle eyes and a big toothy grin. Middle one has those slanted angry brows, feels a bit more threatening. Top pumpkin keeps it simple, round eyes and a crooked lil smile, more goofy than scary. A candle flame peeks from the very tip and theres a curling vine with a couple of leaves twisting around the base that ties the whole stack together.
Colour-wise its all in that warm burnt-orange to deep amber range with black outline work holding each carved section clean. The candle adds the lightest bit of cream and gold at the tip. Its not a multicolour explosion, its more the kind of design that reads immediately as halloween without needing ten thread changes to get there. Directional satin fills on the pumpkin bodies give them a rounded three-dimensional look, which is harder to pull off than it seems at small sizes.
Alot of buyers come to this one for october tote bags and table runners. Last autumn a customer wanted it on a black linen table runner for a halloween dinner party and it looked genuinely great at the bigger end. The stacked format sits vertical so it works nicely on narrow items like bag straps, bottle holders or even a bookmark hoop. Stitch it on black or dark navy cotton and the orange pops off the fabric like a proper spooky lantern.
5 sizes in the zip, smallest at 3.51 inch wide for patches or pockets, largest at 7.51 inch for tote fronts or jacket backs. Dont skip the cutaway stabiliser on this one, dense satin on the carved triangles will pucker on woven fabric without it. Hoop firm, use mid speed, and ease the rpm right down for the tiny flame detail at top so it stitches individually. Use a topping layer on textured fabrics so the outline thread stays sharp.
8 file formats in the zip so whatever machine you run it should be in there. Holler if you need a size that isnt listed and Ill see what I can do.

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.
