Tall vertical layout. Top half is the sky and mountain stack, bottom half is the lake reflection of the same scene. Sky goes warm peach into pale yellow at the horizon. Mountain peaks in charcoal and grey with white snow caps. Pine tree silhouettes line the shore in a deep forest green. The lake mirrors everything back as a softer rippled echo.
Real wanderlust feel to this one. Im kinda obsessed with reflection compositions and this design lemme tell ya, the symmetry is the whole point. Same peaks above, slightly distorted ripple version below. The pines stand sharp at the waterline. Tiny detail in the snow caps catches the warm sunset light on one side and stays cool grey on the other side.
Ten colours total. Two oranges and a pale yellow for the sky gradient, charcoal grey and a deeper black for mountain shadow, white for snow, forest green for pines, two teals on the lake, plus a thin outline brown. The width is narrow at 1.8 to 2.8 inches, theres a height stretch of 5.5 to 8.5 inches tall. Stitch count runs 31k on the small size and climbs to 50k stitches on the biggest. Last summer my customer wrote me asking for the tall version on a hiking daypack panel and the colours stayed crisp through three months of trail use.
Stitch on cream, oatmeal, white or pale grey for the cleanest read. Pop the medium size on a canvas backpack panel or denim jacket back. Best on cotton tea towels for outdoorsy kitchen sets. Try the small hoop on a flannel shirt pocket aswell. Skip dark fabrics, the sunset gradient gets really really lost on charcoal or navy and you wont see the fade transition.
Density is heavy at 2104 spi, this is a stitch-rich design. Use a heavy cutaway stabiliser. Double up if youre customising on knit because it doesnt forgive density. Hoop snug, ease the speed back through the densest rock-fill sections aswell, the colour transitions wont read clean if you rush em. Hoop tight on canvas and denim. Hit the support tab if any stitch line ends mid-row.

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.
