Two strawberries hanging right next to each other, stems meeting at the top where they get tied up with a big loopy pink bow. The berries are a deep crimson red, filled with dense satin and scattered with small black seed marks. Green calyx leaves fan out between the stems and the bow. Its suprisingly high density for 4 colours, the bow sections alone account for a big chunk of those 55k stitches on the biggest size.
The bow is what people keep coming back for in this design. Its not a flat tie, theres actual volume stitched into each loop, the satin columns curve and the fill direction changes between the loop and the tail so it reads three-dimensional. I spent a bit of time getting that bow right because flat bows look cheap in embroidery, and this one doesnt.
I get questions from customers making strawberry-themed kitchen sets with this one, a customer last june sent me a full set she did on white cotton aprons for her daughters birthday party. She stitched 3 different sizes, the 3.5-in motif on napkins, the 5-inch on apron pockets, the biggest on the apron bib. Looked like a boutique set. Nine sizes from 3.5 to a 7.5 top, 15k stitches on the small end up to 55k on the largest.
Works best on white or oatmeal pink cotton. Add a water-soluble topping if youre stitching on terry cloth or waffle-weave towelling. Drop polymesh under the larger sizes, 55k is a lot of satin density to ask of a light tearaway. Avoid dark fabrics because the black seed details get lost and the design loses its crispness.
Text me on chat if the bow colour sequence comes out wrong and ill fix the colour stops for ya.

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.
