Ive been meaning to make a proper heart wreath for ages and finally pulled it together last christmas season. Its a circular ring built from individual heart outlines all clustered and overlapping, each heart has a satin border so youve got that raised crisp edge. The centre of the wreath is open which I really like, it leaves room to add an initial or date if youre wanting to personalise it later.
Single colour, just red, no thread swaps needed. Density is 387 so it sits nicely on fabric without being too heavy. The wreath is fairly square overall, ranging from 3.43 inches to 7.33 inches, which means it works great centred on a round item like a tea towel or a pillow cushion without looking off-balance.
Stitch count goes from 10,118 at starting 3-in up to 21,288 for the full size, nothing crazy for a wreath with this many hearts stacked together. Back stretch fabric with cutaway, tearaway works under woven cotton or linen. Use a firm tearaway on the smaller sizes to keep the dense ring from distorting when you unhoop.
One customer told me they put the medium version onto a cream linen pillow and added a monogram in the centre using a separate font stitch, looks send me pictures kind of good. Its the versatility of the open centre thats useful for that sort of personalisation. Pick the size that suits your hoop and youre good to go.
5 sizes included, all in the one download.

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.
