The text sits at the top and the heart builds below it from pure flourish work. 'Love' is in red cursive and 'You' finishes in black, the two words on a single flowing baseline at the top. Below that, two long curving strokes sweep out from the centre, one going left and one going right, then arc inward and down to meet at the bottom point of the heart. Those strokes form the outer shell of the heart shape. But inside the curve, the stroke isnt a single line, its a fan of parallel satin stripes, maybe five or six of them radiating outward, so the lower half looks almost like a peacock tail or a fine-line comb. Thats what makes this feel more intricate than a basic outlined heart.
Eight small scattered hearts float around the composition. Three cluster near the 'Love You' text on the left in alternating black and red. Two group on the right beside 'You'. A couple more land near the base. The colour split is clean, red above and black below, with both colours shared in the scattered hearts so the two tones connect. Two colour stops, no complicated thread changes.
I sell this one every Valentine's season and last February people ordered it again for a second time. Five sizes from 2.71 by 3.5 inches up to 5.8 by 7.5 inches. Density sits at 439, so the design stitches out fairly quick at 8 to 19 thousand stitches depending on size. Use a tearaway sheet beneath plain weave cotton. Float a topping on textured fabric. Hoop firm so the parallel satin lines in the flourish section stay evenly spaced. Pick white or cream woven cotton for best results. Any alignment issues down the centre line, send a note and ill have a look.

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.
