I always get a wave of hello-fall requests in late august from customers who start their autumn projects early, and this is the design I point them to for the leaf-heavy version. The word 'Hello' is in a casual flowing script with the second word 'Fall' in a bolder contrasting type, and wrapped around the lettering is a scatter of individual autumn leaf shapes in a few different species, oak, maple, and a couple of narrow pointy ones. Five colours, 8,984 stitches, density 120, in 2.99 by 3.51 inches.
The leaf scatter is digitised so each shape is its own separate fill element with individual satin outlines, which means the colour contrast between the leaves and the lettering stays clean even at moderate density. Use tear-away stabiliser on woven cotton, medium-weight cutaway on stretch fabrics. At five colour stops this takes a few minutes more than a single-colour piece but the colour variety in the leaves is worth the changes. I had a customer write me back in september who did an entire set of autumn throw pillow covers with this design placed in each corner and said they looked like something from a magazine spread. I believe it because warm autumnal palettes always photograph really well.
The 3 inch wide footprint works on a left chest garment placement or as a centre motif on a linen napkin, tea towel, or cushion cover. Stitch on cream, light beige, or off-white base fabric for the most natural autumn palette. Burnt orange, deep rust, forest green, and golden yellow thread colours are the most popular combination Ive seen customers use, though deep warm red leaves with natural cream script always looks really good on dark background fabrics too. Ask me if you want a single-colour version for faster stitching projects and Ill prep the file.

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.
