This is a full kitchen scene and its packed. The big lidded stockpot sits at the back left, steam wisps coming off the top, a hook ladle resting against the rim. To the right of that theres a smaller serving bowl, also steaming, spoon in it, the kind you might use for sauce or gravy on the side. Front and centre is a raw rack of meat on a dark green cutting board, that deep red satin with white fat lines running across it that makes the cut look almost three-dimensional. And then to the left theres a second chopping board with a whole onion, a garlic clove and a few thick tomato slices on it. A carving knife lies diagonal across the foreground pulling the whole scene together.
Twelve colours and fourteen changes, its one of the more complex designs in the range. The metallic grey on the stockpot and bowl is done in directional satin with a lighter underlay to give it that brushed-metal look, you cant really get that effect any other way. The meat stitching is the densest section and its where most of the 67k stitches at the big size actually live. At the smallest size youre still at nearly 30k, so this one isnt for a small five-inch hoop on a cotton tee, it needs space and a stable base to sit right.
Stitch it on a plain cream or natural linen fabric for a farmhouse kitchen look. Use a dense no-show mesh stabiliser sewn flat to the back of the linen and it keeps everything locked through that many colour changes without the fabric pulling. Works well on aprons, tea towels and cushions where the large format gives the scene room to breathe. Dont try it on anything stretchy, the detail in the cutting board sections will distort on jersey and the whole thing will look lumpy.
Last christmas a customer stitched the biggest size onto a natural linen apron bib and the result was genuinely like a painting. The pot and knife and meat all at that scale just hit differently. Takes time to stitch at 67k but the finished piece is the kind of thing that hangs on a kitchen wall not just wears as an apron.
Text me if theres anything off with the files and Ill get it fixed and back to you quickly.

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.
