Just the outline and lines, thats the whole thing. Its a heart shape made from thin black runs, and inside the heart there are 2 sunflower blooms drawn in pure line art. Solid black disk centres with narrow petals radiating out, leaf veining on the stems, all done with running and satin line stitches rather than fill. Theres no blocked satin fill anywhere in this design, its completely open and light.
Single colour, no colour changes at all, so setup is as simple as it gets. Density is 275 spi meaning well below average, really gentle on the fabric. The low stitch count also means it plays well on sheer fabrics where a heavier design would pucker. A customer who makes handmade cards stitched this on cotton muslin last summer and said it looked almost like a pen drawing once framed.
Five sizes from 3.51 to 7.51 inches wide. Stitch range 5,717 to 12,633. Works on basically any colour fabric but reads best on white, cream, or a pastel where those thin line stitches catch the light properly. Use tearaway or wash-away stabiliser, cutaway would be visible through the open areas. Avoid dark base fabrics unless you switch to a white or contrast thread.
What people are using this design for
A starting point. The design works for plenty more than just this list, this is what folks have stitched it onto most.
- Minimalist tote bags and canvas shoppersLinen tote bag front at 7.51 inches where the loose weave texture shows through the open line work and makes the stitching look handmade in the exact right way.
- White and pastel t-shirts and topsWhite cotton tee chest at 4 inches in black thread, minimal and clean and looks intentional rather than just a quick iron-on.
- Botanical wall art and framed hoopsCream voile framed as wall art in a round natural hoop, the sheer fabric and open stitch density together give it an almost watercolour quality.
- Tea towels and kitchen linensKitchen linen border accent at 3.51 inches, a corner placement on a flour-sack towel is practical and reads well even after many washes.
- Handkerchiefs and gift fabric itemsJournal cover fabric panel before binding, the low-density construction sits flat without stiffening the cover when the journal is carried daily.

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.
