A single rose in proper botanical line art style. The bloom faces slightly toward you so you can see the layers of petals curling outward, theres a short stem below with 2 leaves showing the vein lines. Its not a stylised cartoon rose and its not a hyper-realistic filled piece either, it sits in that clean illustrative zone where the satin column outlines do all the work.
Two colours, rose and leaf, so only one thread swap in the whole job. Density is 371, nice and medium, doesnt fight you on cotton or linen. Five sizes from 3.28 inches reaching to 7.01 inches, stitch count from 9,124 to 19,546, so the large is a solid stitch-out but nothing painful. Heres the thing with outline designs: the stabiliser matters more than people think even at low stitch counts, because any hooping slip shows up as a wobbly line.
I get messages about this one year round, its one piece that that sells in spring for mothers day, in june for wedding season, and then again in autumn for birthday gifts. Its genuinely versatile. My customers use it on linen guest towels, canvas tote bags, and even denim chambray shirts.
Stick a tearaway behind woven cotton, linen, or denim. A good topping layer on any textured fabric will keep the satin lines from sinking into the weave. Avoid too-bright threads on dark fabrics at the small sizes, the detail can muddy if theres not enough contrast.
Stitch it centred on a tea towel, over the chest pocket of a shirt, or as a repeating pattern along the hem of a table runner.

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.
