Its 2 daisy-type blooms on one stem, the bigger flower sitting up top and a smaller one just below it, with a tight little bud peeping out to the side. The petals are a deep crimson red but each one gets a heavy black wash towards the tip, so the whole flower reads almost two-tone. Yellow seed centres, green stem, jagged little leaves down the sides. Nothing fussy about it.
That dark tip treatment on the petals is what makes this one pop. Its not just a plain red flower. The directional satin stitching runs along each petal so you can actually see the ridges, like a real engraved botanical print. 9 sizes from 3.49 inches up to 7.49 inches wide, and the stitch count runs from about 11,500 stitches at the smaller end to just over 31,500 at the biggest. So it scales realy well without losing that bold edge.
A customer at a floral boutique ordered this last spring for their shop tote bags. She wanted something that read as floral but had some drama to it, not the usual pastel softness. The red-black combo was exactly what she was after. I get messages from people wanting this for Mexican folk-art inspired projects aswell, which makes alot of sense once you see it stitched out on a cream linen background.
Stitch it on white, cream, oatmeal, or sage fabric and the red really burns. Skip very dark fabrics here, the black petal tips get lost. Try a 5-in centre on a canvas tote front, or pop the smaller 3.5-in placement on a denim shirt pocket or the chest of a cotton apron. Use mid cutaway behind on woven cotton and linen, the density sits around 954 so it aint light. Slow your machine down on the petal sections and keep your bobbin tension consistent. But honestly the file runs clean once its hooped properly. Dont rush the top bloom.
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.
- Floral boutique cotton tote bagsStitch a 6-inch run on an oatmeal cotton tote and use it as a branded carry bag for a floral boutique. The red reads bold from across a room.
- Kitchen linen aprons and towelsPop the medium size onto a white linen hand towel or apron for a kitchen that wants something with a bit of drama instead of cute chickens.
- Denim jacket chest pocketEmbroider the small 3.5-inch onto a denim shirt chest pocket for a gardener who wants a wildflower vibe without a pastel design.
- Mexican folk-art inspired cushion coversUse this on a cream cushion cover alongside other folk-art motifs. The two-tone petals sit really well in Mexican-style embroidery compositions.
- Garden party favour bagsStitch 3 small versions on organza pouches or kraft paper gift bags for a garden party. 3 flowers, quick to run off, packs up nicely.
- Botanical wall hoop framed artHoop the biggest 7.5-inch in a deep frame and use it as botanical wall art in a dark-walled room where the red really punches.
- Florist wrapping apron brandingRun it on a sage green canvas apron for a florist or plant shop. The floral theme is obvious but the dark drama keeps it adult.
- Market stall canvas shopping bagsStitch on a natural canvas shopper for a farmers market stall. The red-black combo is much more distinctive than plain green leaf designs.

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.
