A heart shape but the inside isnt solid fill, its packed with circles of different sizes, bigger ones near the edge and smaller ones toward the centre, all done as satin ring outlines so the white fabric peeks through between each one. Its one colour so the whole effect comes from the negative space between the rings rather than from thread variety. Looks alot more interesting than a plain filled heart when its stitched up.
6 sizes going from 1.38 inches all the way up to 5.92 inches wide, with stitches running 3,591 on the tiniest size and reaching 15,555 on the big one. Density is 404. A tearaway stabiliser handles the smaller sizes fine. For anything above 4 inches on a stretchy cotton jersey or a knitwear piece, go with cutaway to keep all those satin circles from distorting when the fabric pulls.
Wilcom built the file and the ring sizes are intentionally varied, its not just uniform dots, the scaling makes it feel organic even though geometrically its very clean. One customer last valentines day ordered the 5 inch version for a batch of gift bags in red on white cotton and sent me a message saying her recipients thought they were store-bought. Use red thread on white for the classic look or go navy on cream for something a lil more grown up.
Pop the 1.38 inch version on a gift tag or ribbon header for wrapping presents this february. The 4 inch size works great on a shirt pocket or bag front. Skip very light pink thread on white because the contrast disappears.
Text me through the shop contact if anything isnt right with the download and Ill fix it straight away.

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.
