Reclining leopard cub lying on its side next to a large open lotus flower, 5 sizes from 3.5 inches wide up to 7.5 inches wide. The leopard body has proper rosette spot markings done in zigzag satin patterns across the back and sides, the sort of detail that actually reads as a big cat and not just a spotted blob. The tail curls out wide to the right. The lotus has broad layered petals and a visible inner petal whorl on the left side of the composition. Single colour black throughout.
Stitch count from 8,460 to 17,245, density at 494 which is a lighter medium. Single colour so theres no thread changes. Built the stitch order in Wilcom EmbroideryStudio with the spot markings using directional satin so you get real depth across the whole body, and the lotus petals use a radiating stitch direction so each petal catches light at a different angle.
Lay tearaway stabiliser under woven fabrics like cotton canvas or linen. Cutaway on jersey or fleece. Add a wash-away topping on velvet or waffle so the fine satin outlines dont sink into the pile. Works best on cream, white or sage green fabric since the black line art reads clean against light backgrounds.
I get orders for this regularly from people doing botanical home decor and wildlife gift items. One customer last spring put the 6-inch version on a natural linen tote for a mothers day gift and said it looked exactly like a block print. Honestly thats my favourite way to describe it too. Great on cushion covers for a jungle-botanical bedroom look.

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.
