Three hearts, all open outline, no fill. Theyre stacked in a loose overlapping cluster and each heart curves with those long swooping lines that taper at the bottom point and loop at the top humps. The overall shape is kinda organic, like someone drew em quick with a good felt tip and kept the imperfect overlap on purpose. No sharp geometric edges here, its all flow. And because theres no fill, just those satin column outlines, the whole thing stitches out with a delicate open look that sits nicely on almost any fabric colour.
Single thread, 0 colour changes, 1 stop. Smallest size is 2 by 1.8 inches and runs about 2,319 stitches, which is genuinely fast. The biggest 7-inch lands at 9,664 stitches, still pretty light even at that scale. Density runs at 220 which is low, so this wont fight thin fabrics or struggle on jersey. I get a lot of valentines day orders on this one but people order it aswell for just everyday love-themed pieces throughout the year, anniversaries, mum gifts, wedding gifts, thats the usual crowd.
Pop the 2-inch on a cream linen pocket square for a subtle romantic detail. Reach out to me if the satin lines look too thick or too fine on your machine because tension settings affect open line art more than solid fills, and Ill talk ya through it.
Add light tearaway woven cottons, linen and canvas. The outline-only design means low stitch density so even lightweight fabrics handle it fine without cutaway. Avoid mesh or open-weave fabric on the smaller sizes though because the satin columns can sink into the weave. Stitch it on white, cream, blush, sage or black cotton for valentines day cards-on-fabric vibes. Best reading is on pale plain grounds where the red really sings. Reach out to me if the outline satin looks too thick or thin on your machine and Ill sort the tension guidance for ya.

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.
