Heart shape filled with a glowing pumpkin face, wrapped in black gothic vines. The pumpkin sits inside the heart outline with an orange tatami fill and a yellow internal highlight that makes it look really really lit from inside. The carved face is simple, triangle eyes and a jagged mouth, but the rest of the composition is kinda complex. Black thorned vines curl around the entire heart perimeter, rust autumn leaves scatter in the corners, and grey spider web threads run across the pumpkin surface.
Five colours: orange, yellow, black, rust, and grey. Density is 899 stitches per square inch at the largest size, and the largest is 7.49 inches wide with 49,706 stitches total. This is genuinely a kinda large complex design, dont attempt it on thin cotton without proper cutaway stabiliser and topping on textured fabric. Youll also want to check your machine handles the jump count at the larger size.
Only 4 sizes available in this one, from 4.49 inches up to 7.49 inches. All four are large format, smallest is still close to 4.5 inches. I designed it that way because the vine detail needs room, at smaller sizes the thorn work starts merging into the orange fill. Digitised in Wilcom EmbroideryStudio, the gothic vines use a satin column with consistent 0.8mm width throughout so theyve got that raised cord look. One customer last halloween stitched the 7.49 inch on the back of a denim jacket and sent me a photo, the detail really came through on the dark fabric.
Use a medium cutaway stabiliser on everything, including woven cotton at these stitch counts. Topping on any fleece or terry. Run a test stitch on your actual fabric before the final hoop. Use iron-on woven interfacing on the denim back if the fabric is light weight. The spider web sections have a cross-stitch style underlay so theyre stable on curved hoop areas.

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.
