So this sunflower has that loose sketched quality I've been going for on alot of my botanicals lately. The petals arent rigid or perfectly spaced, they kind of overlap and lean into each other like a real sunflower does in the garden. That packed tatami fill in the centre is the star here, its got real texture and weight and you can almost see the seeds in the finished piece.
3 colour threads in total: golden yellow on the petals, a warm brown centre, and green for the stem and leaf. The colour changes arent dramatic but they hit at the right points so the digitising flows without alot of trim jumps in visible spots. Stitches beautifully on cotton canvas, denim, linen and burlap.
I get messages from customers making farmhouse-style home decor with this one. Last summer a customer sent me a photo of 6 kitchen towels she'd made and they looked like something from a boutique shop. But it also works great on the front of a cream-coloured canvas pillow. And honestly I think the 5-in piece on navy or olive fabric looks the best of all the options.
Comes in 5 sizes from 3.51 to 7.51 inches wide. Stitch count ranges from roughly 19,000 at the smallest up to nearly 48,000 at the largest, so lay cutaway on anything stretchy and a firm tearaway on woven fabric. Slow the machine speed down on the central tatami section. Pick medium weight cotton for the cleanest result.
Holler if the file opens wrong or a size isnt stitching right, Ill take a look and get you sorted fast.

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.
