The pot itself is a squat wide-bodied shape, filled solid, with small side handles visible on each shoulder. Five utensils fan out of the opening like a bouquet: a flat spatula on the far left, a narrow basting spoon, a wire balloon whisk, a shorter spoon, and a dinner fork on the far right. The handles disappear into the pot interior so only the working ends show, which is what gives it that tight fanned-out crest look.
The bottom half of the pot is wrapped in a row of three open roses, each one drawn with individual petals in outline stitch, not fill, so they sit lighter against the solid black of the pot body above. Leaf branches extend left and right from the outer roses, the stems drawn with the same outline-stitch weight as the petals. The whole composition reads as one unified shape, a cook's crest, the kind of thing youd see on a vintage apron pattern or on a restaurant's embroidered linen napkin.
Single colour throughout, black only, no color changes. Thats actually what makes it versatile. Stitch it with navy thread for a nautical kitchen feel, use a warm burgundy for something more vintage, or keep it in black on white for the sharpest read. Ive had a couple of customers who've stitched this in forest green on natural linen and it looks like something from a country kitchen catalogue. One customer mentioned she stitched it in a deep teal last autumn onto a set of napkins and gifted them as a hostess set, and she said the recipient thought they were vintage items from a French market.
Use a firm sew-in stabiliser on cotton twill or canvas and hoop the fabric tight rather than floating it. Densely filled silhouettes pull sideways when hoop tension is uneven, so check all four sides before you start stitching. Back with a woven cutaway on lighter fabrics and the dense fill sections will stay flat from start to finish. Send me a message if the thread pull on the filled body area is more than expected and ill take a look at the underlay settings for your fabric weight.
What people are using this design for
A starting point. The design works for plenty more than just this list, this is what folks have stitched it onto most.
- Kitchen aprons for passionate home cooksThe 6-inch size sits well on a canvas apron bib and the rose row at the base of the pot lines up with the apron seam for a naturally placed look
- Linen tea towels for rustic or farmhouse kitchensStitch the 5-inch version on a linen tea towel corner and the silhouette reads like a hand-stamped botanical print rather than an embroidery
- Canvas tote bags for the weekly farmers market runPut the 4-inch version on a natural canvas tote and it becomes the kind of farmers market bag that gets compliments at the produce stand
- Framed embroidery hoop art for a kitchen wallHoop the 8-inch size on cream linen in a 10-inch frame, mount it and hang it in the kitchen as a permanent piece that never needs dusting
- Chef's jacket chest pocket accentThe 3-inch version is small enough to sit above the left breast pocket of a white chef's jacket without overpowering the professional look
- Oven mitts and kitchen pot holdersWorks on the panel of a pre-made quilted oven mitt, the compact shape fits the space without any awkward cropping at the edges
- Cotton napkins and table linens for a cooking-themed tablescapeStitch on the corner of a set of cotton dinner napkins in matching thread for a cooking-themed table setting that ties the whole look together

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.
