Sunflower with five honey bees buzzing around it and the whole scene leans into a sketchy farmhouse illustration vibe. The sunflower sits centre right, big yellow petals fanning out from a brown stitched centre. Five bees fly on the left, each one mid wing with little brown bodies and bright yellow black striping, theyre clustered around the bloom not scattered randomly.
Behind the sunflower theres a splashy watercolour background in teal and powder blue with tiny orange paint droplets flicked across. Detailed black line work runs over the petals and leaves which gives the whole piece that illustrated print look.
I drew this with farmhouse decor in mind. A customer wrote me last spring asking for a sunflower kitchen towel set for her grandmas birthday and this exact design ended up being the one she picked. Also lovely for honey jar gift bags, garden tote bags, summer market stall aprons.
Comes in 9 sizes, smallest 3.5 inch wide and biggest 7.29 inch tall. Stitch counts run from 25,860 up to nearly 60,000 at the largest so its dense on the bigger versions. 11 colours total including canary yellow, orange, two greens, brown, three blues and white.
Stitches cleanly on cotton, linen, denim and canvas. Skip thin jersey on the larger sizes because the watercolour fill is dense enough to pull on stretch knits. Back any tee with cutaway, hoop woven cotton with tearaway. Ping me if a file refuses to open and ill swap it over within hours.

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.
