Theres a round pumpkin sitting low in the frame, a curling stem poking straight up, and alot of loose autumn leaves scattered around it at different angles. The whole thing runs as open line art, no solid fills anywhere, just clean outlines with a slight hand-drawn wobble on the curves that stops it looking too mechanical. Its the kind of design where the fabric colour does alot of the visual work.
The vine wraps around the left side and drops off at the bottom. Some of the leaves are maple-shaped, some are rounder and more generic fall-leaf silhouettes. I kept it mixed intentionally so it wont read as any one specific season symbol. Stitch density sits around 434 stitches per square inch so its light on the fabric and wont pucker even on thin quilting cotton.
And thats basically the appeal of an outline design, you can thread it in one colour or 5 and it reads completely differently each time. I ran mine in a warm rust thread on natural linen and it looked genuinely gorgeous. A customer ordered this one specifically for quilting blocks, she wanted something that sat flat under a seam allowance without the bulk of a filled design. The smallest size at 2.39 inches wide was exactly right for her 3-inch quilt squares.
Runs cleanest on woven fabrics. Use a lightweight tearaway stabiliser for quilt cotton or a light cutaway for knit. Hoop tight and let embroidery software satin underlay do its job, the outline columns are narrow so stabiliser choice matters more here than on a filled design. Dont skip the topping on terry cloth or any loopy texture.
5 sizes from 2.39 to 5.11 inches wide, all 8 machine file types are packed in the zip. Hit me if the file doesnt open in your software and Ill send a replacement same day.

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.
