Just the outline of a flower. No fill, no shading, no fuss. The petals are traced in a fine satin-column line and the centre is left open so the fabric shows through. Its got that lil botanical sketch energy, like something youd see pressed in a notebook or printed on high-end stationery.
One colour. 687 stitches at 1 inch and 2206 at 2.5 inches. Thats it. The low stitch count means it stitches really fast and the jump-stitch count is minimal so youre not sitting there trimming threads for ages. Drop this onto a bunch of tote bags in a single afternoon, honestly.
Works on linen best, in my opinion. The open outline lets the fabric texture breathe underneath and you get this very natural, pressed-flower look. Also looks good on white poplin shirts, cream canvas and pale grey jersey if youre careful with the stabiliser. Use a light topping on jersey to keep the stitches from sinking into the knit.
I been digitising minimalist outlines for a while and the thing that kills em is when the satin column on the petals is too wide or too narrow. This one has nine sizes across 7 options, but even at the smallest 1-inch size the outline stays crisp and doesnt collapse. A customer last month did the 2.5-inch version on a natural linen apron and sent me photos. Really clean result on the undyed fabric.
Use a tearaway stabiliser on woven fabrics. Hoop snug and the outline stitches flat. Drop a chat note if your needle bends or skips.

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.
