Five utensils lined up in a row -- spoon, flat-head spatula, chef's knife, and whisk -- all rising from a rolling pin that runs across the middle. "Mom's Kitchen" sits in relaxed cursive right on that pin, kinda like a sign you'd hang above the stove. Small olive sprigs fan out at each end. Pick a white cotton tea towel or natural linen apron and this is gonna look really graphic and clean on it.
I made this one after getting alot of requests for a kitchen design that felt like a portrait piece, not just a cute lil icon. Hoop it on medium-weight cutaway stabiliser and run those dense satin sections at a slower speed. Use a topping on terry cloth or waffle-weave fabrics so the stitches dont sink into the texture. The largest size tops out at 7.5 inches tall and 23,656 stitches, so dont rush it. Stitch the 3.5-inch version for napkin corners at only 8,464 stitches.
One customer ordered this on a white apron for her mum last mothers day and sent me a photo. She was suprised how bold it read from across the kitchen. Thats what I was going for -- something that reads as a sign, not just decoration. The directional underlay on that pin banner keeps the text sharp even at smaller sizes. Add a name below it in a matching font if your machine has that option.

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.
