Pulled this together as a general botanical piece that isnt tied to any particular season, which is what suprised me about how versatile it ended up being. Its sold well in winter, spring, summer, all of it. The focal point is a single open flower at the upper centre, five rounded petals in deep red satin with a small white starburst cut into the centre. Behind it and fanning outward is a dense arrangement of dark green botanical stems. Some have pinnate leaves, those long feathery ones where tiny leaflets run along both sides of a central vein, kind of like a fern or a yarrow sprig. A few slender upright stems carry small four-petalled green wildflowers and tight little buds. The whole thing is tall and upright, widening at the shoulders and narrowing at the base like a bunch youd pull straight from a summer garden.
2 colours only, Dark Green and Red, with one colour change. Five sizes, ranges from 3.5 in to 7.5 in, stitch counts from 13,940 up to 29,766. The density is 592 which is genuinely dense. The dark green leafwork especially has alot of directional satin packed in tight to replicate that leaflet texture, its the thing that makes it look like an actual botanical illustration rather than a flat filled shape. Use cutaway stabiliser, the leaf sections will pull on tearaway. For velvet or heavy canvas, topping with a water-soluble layer helps keep the edges of the leaf fills defined. Digitised in the digitising software.
One customer wanted the 6.mid 5-in version on a linen apron front last autumn and said the dark greens reproduced realy clearly against the natural linen colour. She wasnt expecting it to look that much like a printed fabric piece. Thats kind of what Im going for with the higher-density digitising on the leafwork.
Text me on chat if the file needs anything fixed. Stitch it on a linen apron, a canvas tote, a cushion front, a tea towel, a denim shirt chest area, or a wall hoop on natural cotton. Skip synthetic fabrics at the 29,766-stitch count, theyll pucker badly under heavy fills. Best on stable wovens with a full cutaway underlay. Natural linen. Done.

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.
