Tree of life sitting inside a heart shape, the trunk twisting up the centre and the branches reaching out sideways to fill the curves of the heart. Roots curl down at the base like a mirror of the canopy, small leaf clusters dot the branches in tight bunches. Single colour dark green, all dense fill, the tree and heart frame share the same thread so it reads as one piece not two layers.
And the heart border itself is a satin column running the full perimeter, which holds the shape clean when the tree fills the interior. Stitch count goes from 11,426 at the smallest 2.84 inch up to 27,279 at the largest 6.61 inch wide. Density at 589 means medium-heavy so plan a cutaway under anything but thick cotton canvas or denim.
One colour, zero swap, zero pause mid stitch. Heres the catch alot of customers miss, the dense leaf clusters bunch the trims to 72 jumps so if your machine doesnt auto trim youre snipping for a solid 4 minutes after stitch out. So the trunk satin needs a sharp 70/10 needle to keep the directional stitches clean at 3 inch size. I get messages about this one alot during baby shower season last spring.
Best on linen, cotton canvas, denim, brushed twill. Skip jersey unless you back it heavy with cutaway and add a topping layer. Sage olive cream and bone all work as fabric colours, the tonal dark green reads gorgeous on warm naturals. Pop the 4 inch on a tote chest panel, run the 5 inch in a cushion centre, or frame the 6.61 inch in an 8 inch wood hoop for nursery wall art. Heres the one to use if youre stitching keepsakes for new baby families or memorial pieces, the symbolism does the heavy lifting.

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.
