Mocked this up as a straight harvest design, no jack-o-lantern faces, just two actual pumpkins the way theyd sit on a porch in early october. The taller one is narrow with deep ribbing, the wider one squats beside it, both done in pumpkin orange with tangerine highlight on the raised rib sections. Sage green curling stems and a couple of small leaves at the top. Clean, botanical, could honestly live from September through to thanksgiving week without looking out of place.
4 sizes from 1.89 inch wide up to 4.15 inch, heights 2.5 to 5.51 inch. Stitch counts run 5,744 to 17,197. Density is 752 which is substantial but not so heavy it stiffens a linen or cotton fabric awkwardly. The orange fills use directional satin stitches to suggest the curved ribs of the pumpkin rather than just being flat fills. Use standard cutaway on wovens, hoop tightly in the right direction so the rib lines stay vertical and dont skew.
Ive seen this work on kraft linen aprons, on dark denim as an autumn accent, on tea towels, and on small zipper pouches. One customer ordered this last september specifically because she wanted pumpkin decor items she could put out before halloween and keep up through thanksgiving without swapping things out. Hoop the 4-inch size onto an apron front pocket area for a quick autumn gift. Run the 2-inch in the corner of linen napkins for a matching table set. Pair with dark denim or kraft linen fabric and the orange really sings against those earthy tones.

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.
