This is pure outline work, no fill, no solid satin blocks inside the pumpkin bodies. The ribbed sections between the outline runs give you that dimensional look without adding a ton of stitch count. I actually got a message from a customer last october who asked me why hers looked 'sketchy' and I explained thats exactly the point, the open areas let the fabric show through. Looks brilliant on white pique polo or a natural linen table runner. She ended up running it on alot of table runners for a thanksgiving craft fair and said they sold faster than anything else on her table.
Two colours: burnt orange for the pumpkin outlines and dark green for the leaves and curling stem tendrils. One colour change, 2 stops, 34 trims at the smallest size. Stitch range is 6,755 at 1.7 inches wide up to 14,216 at 3.63 wide. Heres the thing about outline designs on stretchy fabric: you really do need a firm cutaway stabiliser, not tearaway, because any give in the backing after the hoop comes off will pull those thin outline runs out of register. Use a tearaway only on firm non-stretch fabrics like cotton duck or canvas. Pair the orange with a burnt sienna bobbin thread so the underside looks clean, too. Pop me a note if youre running into trouble after purchase.
Five sizes in the bundle. Stitch them repeated in a row across a thanksgiving table runner or down the edge of a fall tote bag. Dont try to run the smallest 1.7-inch size without a solid base, thats where outline designs tend to shift on loose weaves. Digitised in my standard software with proper bobbin tension built into the outline paths so the orange sits flat even at the tiniest scale. The dark green vine curls are run-stitched, not satin, which keeps the leaf sections light and airy.

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.
