Its a little cartoon girl, pigtails up, holding a big heart right in front of her, looking sweet and a bit shy about it. The dress is red with some detail stitching on the hem and collar area, her cheeks are rosy, and the whole face is clean cartoon-style with simple round eyes. This design runs big on stitch count, 22,095 at the smallest 3.51 inch size all the way up to 51,506 stitches at 7.51 inches, which makes sense because theres 7 colour changes and the density sits at 934 throughout.
I digitised the skin sections separately from the dress so you can email me if you want to swap the dress colour to something other than red. The hair uses directional satin so it has a proper hair-like texture rather than a flat brown fill. Theres a tiny heart in her hands that gets its own colour layer aswell, so the whole thing has good visual depth when stitched out.
Use a heavy cutaway stabiliser for this one. The density hits 934 and the smallest size still packs over 22,095 stitches into a 3.5 inch square. Stitch on cotton twill or medium weight canvas for best results. Avoid stretchy jersey at the small sizes, the facial detail can shift if your base fabric moves mid-hoop.
My daughter saw this one and immediately wanted it on her school backpack. I stitched the 4 inch version on white canvas and it came out realy well, the red dress pops against white. One customer ordered it for a girls birthday party tote bag last february and said it was a huge hit.
Email me if any colour in the file doesnt match what you expected and Ill sort a fix for you.

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.
