Sketched this out in June and its been one of those designs that keeps selling quietly month after month. Theres no fill, its all outline work. The heart is an anatomical one, not the cartoon kind, the real chambered shape with the aorta and vessels at the top in thick tubular strokes. Small branching lines extend from the base like fine veins. The whole thing reads as a kinda technical illustration but the line weight is bold enough that it doesnt look clinical.
Then "Warrior" cuts across the lower section of the heart in a big flowing brush-script, letters wide, descenders long, a small decorative terminal on the baseline swash. Im truly happy with how that contrast turned out, the jagged biological shape above and the smooth confident script below. I digitised it in my main digitising tool in single-colour black, zero colour changes needed during stitching.
Stitch count runs from 9,106 at the 4-inch up to 16,266 at the 7-inch. I get messages asking whether this works on fleece and the answer is yes. Use cutaway stabiliser on any stretch fabric. Skip topping on woven cotton, not needed there. Use a film layer on fleece or French terry only.

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.
