Five kitchen tools standing in a row behind a blank scroll banner. From the left youve got the puffy black chef hat, an orange flipper spatula, a wire whisk with that loopy black handle, a kelly green wooden spoon, and a tiny dark oven mitt hanging on the right side. The whole bunch is hugged by a hand-drawn ribbon banner running across the centre, left wide open so you can add a family name, a kitchen quote, or just leave it blank.
5 colour stops, runs through orange, dark green, black, and a touch of white for the banner highlight. Stitch range goes from 5,750 on the smallest 2.67-inch hoop layout up to 20,517 on the 7.11-inch version. Density sits around 361 which is on the denser side for the satin columns on the banner edges, so dont skip medium cutaway under cotton and use heavier weight on knit. Ive digitised this in Wilcom with directional underlay on every utensil shape, the whisk loops have proper running stitch underlay so they wont collapse on the second pass.
A customer ordered this back in autumn for a kitchen tea-towel set she was gifting her mum, she added the family surname inside the banner using a separate script font and its now hanging in the gift recipients kitchen. Best tip from her was to stitch a piece of water-soluble topping on top before running the design, that kept the satin from sinking into the towel weave.
Run this on cotton flour-sack tea towels, canvas aprons, kitchen wall hoops, or oven-mitt cuffs. Skip stretchy jersey, the dense fills on the spatula and spoon will pucker without aggressive stabilising. Pick the medium 5-inch size for a standard chefs apron chest panel, it sits perfect under a pocket. Add tearaway under the cotton then peel after, the back stays clean and the banner outline reads sharp from across a room.

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.
