Small hearts arranged tip-to-tip around a circle, each one pointing outward from the center like compass points on a map. The hollow inside is wide enough to stitch a name, a date, or a monogram into later, which is honestly the main reason people buy this one. Its 3 colours, the hearts alternate between 2 shades of red and pink with a lighter accent, and the rhythm of those colour changes keeps the ring from looking too uniform. Whole design is square proportioned, 3.5 to 7.5 inches across.
Stitch count sits at 5,294 at the smaller end and 12,386 at 7.5 inches. Density is 220, actually quite light for a filled-heart design, the fabric breathes underneath and doesnt get stiff or crunchy. I digitised each heart as a separate satin fill so the colour change lands clean without bleed between neighbours. Pair with a soft tearaway on stable woven fabrics. The lower density means it works nicely on lighter cotton without the backing creating too much bulk.
My favourite use Ive seen for this one is as a monogram frame. A customer asked me last winter if she could add initials inside the circle after stitching and I said yes, just hoop again and centre the lettering. Pop it on white cotton or cream linen and add initials or a short name in the center. Honestly its one of the more versatile ones in the valentine range because you can customise the inside.
Try the 5 inch size for a pocket or bag detail. Use the 7.5 inch run on a pillow where youve got room for a full name in the middle. Pick a stabiliser with low loft so the finished ring lays flat and doesnt pucker.

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.
