Sketched this out for the gift-bouquet crowd, the lavender that looks like someone just bundled it up and tied a red bow before handing it across. Multiple stems stand upright and fan slightly at the top, the florets bloom in two tones across the same bunch. Most sit in deep violet, some tips soften into a lilac pink, so theres a bit of natural variation without adding extra thread changes.
The red ribbon is the focal point that makes this different from a plain herb bunch. It wraps the stems at the mid-point in a smooth satin fill, then loops up into a full bow with two rounded loops and two long tails hanging below. The bow loops have a slight shadow fill on the inner curve so they read as three-dimensional rater than flat. Four colours total, deep purple, light lilac, leaf green and red. Its a clean colour sequence in Wilcom EmbroideryStudio, logical order so the bow threads last without going back to restart earlier colours.
Wide rather than tall this one. Five sizes from 3.51 by 1.8 inches up to 7.51 by 3.86. Compact enough for a sleeve badge, wide enough to fill a tea towel centre. Stitch count runs to 23,226 on the biggest and density is 801 stitches per square inch. Medium stabiliser, hoop firm. The ribbon bow needs a steady base or the satin fills shift and those ribbon loops look puffy instead of smooth.
Works on white, cream, pale grey or dusty blush. Ive run it on a plain white cotton tote and that bow catches the eye immediately. Avoid patterned backgrounds, the two-tone purple gets lost in anything busy. Best on woven cotton or linen. A customer last spring used it on a set of linen gift bags for a baby shower and said the bow detail made people think they were store-bought until they looked close. Dont skip the water-soluble topping on looser linen, the floret fills need it.
Good for Valentine gifts, spring kitchen linen, new baby gift bags, its versatile without being generic. Dm the shop if you want the exact red thread number from the sample, its a warm true red not an orange-red and the difference is noticeable once its stitched.

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.
