Pulled this one together after alot of requests for something nature-themed that doesnt look like a clipart printout. Its a woodland tree built entirely in dark green satin and fill, the branches spreading upward and outward in this really organic way. The upper canopy looks almost like coral its so densely branched, and then the lower trunk splits into thick roots that anchor the whole thing. One colour. Done.
Ran the file in Wilcom and the density sits around 595 stitches per square inch, that means the branches get that solid filled-in look rather than a scratchy outline. Four sizes go from 5 inches up to just over 8 inches wide, stitch count ranging from 18,383 on the small end to 29,786 on the large. The directional fill on the main trunk runs vertical so it catches the light differently to the branching satin on the outer limbs.
A customer ordered the 6-in build for a set of cotton napkins for a woodland baby shower and sent photos. Looked really sharp against the off-white fabric. Use a heavy cutaway stabiliser for anything with this stitch density, especially on stretch fabrics where the topping can start to pull. The dense underlay needs something solid underneath or youll get distortion around the outer branches.
Stitch the 8-inch version on a natural linen pillow and it reads as folk art rather than craft project. Pop it on a canvas tote in cream or tan and the single dark green thread looks completely intentional. Skip dark fabrics unless youre doing a tone-on-tone look, the branching detail wont show up well against navy or black. And honestly this works on more things than youd think. Hit me up if you want a different colourway sorted.
What people are using this design for
A starting point. The design works for plenty more than just this list, this is what folks have stitched it onto most.
- Woodland nursery decor on a cotton throw pillowStitch the 8-inch version onto a natural cotton pillow cover for a clean woodland nursery accent that doesnt look babyish.
- Nature-themed tote bag for farmers market or grocery runsThe single dark green colour pops cleanly on cream or tan canvas tote without needing any backing colour.
- Baby shower gift on a muslin swaddle or blanketPairs beautifully with woodland animal designs on a gift set; the tree works as an anchor piece in any forest scene.
- Kitchen linen set with matching woodland themeRun the 5-in build across a set of flour sack towels and keep the ground strip facing the hem for a grounded, earthy look.
- Outdoor gear patches on canvas backpack or hatThe dense branching silhouette holds up on canvas and denim without distorting, great for iron-on stabilised patches.
- Framed hoop art for a cabin or forest-themed roomHooped in a 7-inch natural linen round, the single-colour design reads as intentional modern folk art.
- Nature journal cover or fabric book bindingThe tight directional fill on the trunk gives a wood-grain texture effect that looks deliberate on fabric covers.

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.
