Its a sunflower, but look closer and every single petal is actually an awareness ribbon. The outer ring is made up of about a dozen elongated pink ribbon shapes fanning out, and the centre disc has this kinda just dotted leopard-spot texture digitised in, all in the same dusty pink. Around the edges where the petals meet the background theres a scatter of tiny red hearts, maybe 8 or 9 of em, which break up the solid pink nicely. The whole thing reads as a flower at a glance but up close the ribbon petals are really obvious. Its a clever way to put both things together without the design feeling cluttered.
2 colours total across 5 sizes from 3.5 inches to 7.5 inches. The largest at 7.5 inches runs about 35,000 stitches with a decent density on the petals. The inner circle has a tatami fill with the spots sitting on top as separate elements, so theres a bit of layering happening that takes some machine time. Use a cutaway stabiliser here, the density on those ribbon petals is higher than it looks and a tearaway wont hold it flat. I worked the digitising with directional stitching on each ribbon petal so they catch the light differently from different angles.
I sent a few samples of this one out in october and a customer who runs a small charity fundraiser group came back saying they stitched it onto 20 fleece hoodies for their Pinktober walk team. seriously nice to hear. The pink on white cotton is my personal favourite but Ive also seen it on charcoal grey which gives it a totally different feel, kinda moodier and more graphic.
Use the 7.5 design on tote bags, hoodies or sweatshirt backs. The 3.5 inch fits a hat or a shirt chest. Stitch on white cotton, soft pink fleece or charcoal canvas and the colour really sings. Email me a chat if anything needs customising and Ill fix it quick.

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.
