This one isnt just a spiderweb. Its a full halloween banner, a coffin-lid-shaped composition with a grinning jack-o-lantern perched at the top behind a wide arched web. Bats scatter across the web at odd angles, small spiders sit at the intersection points, and the whole bottom half of the design fills in with thick baroque-style scrollwork that looks like gothic ironwork.
Digitised in Wilcom EmbroideryStudio at a density of 353, which gives the open linework sections good definition without flooding the fabric. All in black, no colour stops at all, just one thread run from start to finish with 56 trims across the 4 sizes. Size range is 4.5 to 7.5 inches wide, 3.86 to 6.43 inches tall. Stitch counts are 10,008 on the small end, 17,019 on the large.
For the bigger sizes on knit fabric, go with cutaway stabiliser. The open web sections with the long satin runs in the scrollwork can shift on stretchy material if the backing isnt firm enough. Add topping film on fleece or any textured surface so the fine web lines dont sink into the pile. Best on heavyweight woven canvas, black felt, or firm cotton twill. Pair it with plain black thread on orange fabric for maximum contrast.
I get messages in October from people who want to send me a photo of this on their front-door banners. One customer wanted a version stitched on black felt for a classroom halloween party display, said the coffin shape cut from the fabric after stitching made it look like a real decoration. Email me if you cant open the files or need a different format and Ill get a replacement out.

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.
