A tall lily stem runs up the length of the design, which is what makes this one work differently to most floral embroideries that spread out wide. Two fully open blooms trumpet outward at the top, the petals layered in 3 shades of pink from blush outer edges to deeper rose veining at the centre. Below them a column of tight narrow buds point upward on short side stems, and long flat leaves angle off down the main stalk. Seven colours, 6 colour changes.
Nine sizes from 3.50 by 2.03 inches at 8,922 stitches to 7.50 by 4.35 inches at 19,092 stitches. The vertical shape suits shirt plackets, pant legs and tote bag panels better than most horizontal florals. Use a light tearaway stabiliser on flat cotton or linen. Hoop tight and use topping film on any texture or pile fabric. Skip dark navy or black base fabric because the blush tones dont read well against very dark grounds. The 4.35-inch width at the biggest size fits a standard 5x7 hoop with room to breathe.
A customer wrote me a few weeks back after stitching the 5-inch version down the side seam of white linen trousers. She wasnt sure it would work on such lightweight fabric but used a light tearaway with topping film and it sat perfectly flat. Cream, white and sage all work well. Avoid busy patterned fabrics where the pink tones disappear into the background. Pop the 4-inch onto a kitchen towel corner for a quick botanical gift thats a bit more considered than a generic floral.

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.
