Theres two hearts here, one sitting inside the other, both drawn in a loose sketchy black outline style, not perfectly geometric, more like someone drew them freehand with a steady hand. Two butterflies sit in the lower half, wings spread open, filled in a soft pink satin with black vein details and spotted edges. Around the whole composition theres these small mini-hearts in red scattered around, some inside the hearts, some outside the frame, which gives it that casual romantic scattered feeling rather than a rigid centered layout.
digitising tools set the punch. The heart outlines use running stitch so they stay light and sketchy, the butterfly wings use satin fills at density of X spi means 325, so theyre not overly heavy on the fabric. Two colours: a pink-red R227 G16 B51 for the butterfly wing fills and mini hearts, and black for the outer sketch lines and wing vein details. One colour change, 37 trims at the small size. Stitch range goes from 7,962 at 3.63 inches wide up to 14,734 at the 6-inch size.
Pick a light or white fabric base and the pink wings really pop against the black sketchy hearts. On pale ivory linen or white poplin this looks genuinely lovely. Use tearaway stabiliser, the density is light enough that it peels off clean without pulling the satin fills. Lay water-soluble film on minky or velvet so the butterfly detail stays above the pile.
Its a good one for valentine pouches, tote inserts, or a small cushion face. One customer wanted it for a set of valentine gift bags she was making for her daughters class, she said it was suprisingly quick to stitch at the 4-inch size and looked like something you'd pay alot more for. Best on white or pale pink cotton, cream linen, or light quilting fabric.
Four sizes: 3.63 by 4.51 inches up to 6.04 by 7.51 inches. Text me if the file needs anything adjusted and Ill take a look.

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.
