My sister stitched this last spring for a set of table napkins she put out at a garden lunch and people kept asking where she bought them. Its a full circle of lavender sprigs, stems pointing outward, flower heads all facing in toward the empty centre. Two thread colours: deep forest green for the stems and leaves, and lilac purple for the clustered flower heads. The density's high enough that the lavender heads sit almost raised off the fabric, you can feel them.
Run a layer of medium-weight cutaway stabiliser under the fabric before you hoop it. The stitch count goes up to nearly 38,000 at the largest size and without proper backing the hoop pull shows around the edges as puckering. Two colour stops total, one thread change. Stitch it on linen, cotton twill or canvas. Skip anything with stretch in it, the high density isnt suited to knit or jersey, it'll distort.
Nine sizes, 3.5 inches wide at the smallest up to 7.5 inches. The open centre gap runs about 1.5 to 3 inches across depending on which size you pick, which is a decent space if you want to add initials or a small monogram inside after. Use the 5 or 6 inch version for cushion covers, the 3.5 to 4 inch range for napkins and smaller items. Its a generous stitch count at the top end so give yourself time when running the biggest size.

- Wedding table linen napkins or placematsThe 4 inch size fits a folded dinner napkin front corner without pulling at the hem.
- Linen tote bag with monogram added inside the wreathStitch the wreath first, then add 2 inch initials inside the open center with a second hoop.
- Cushion cover center design for a bedroomThe 6 to 7 inch size fills a 20 inch cushion front beautifully when centered on plain linen.

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.
