Its a border strip, not a centred motif. The wildflowers grow upward from the bottom edge and they vary in height, some stems short and bushy, others reaching up with a single daisy head. Four colours, so theres a proper layering here: green stems and leaves, a yellow centre bloom, pink or lilac petals, and a second neutral for shading. At density 435 the coverage is quite full, especially on the 4.68-inch wide version where you get 15,273 stitches worth of meadow detail.
Digitised in my software with satin stems and a fill-stitch base layer under the petals, so the flowers dont flatten on medium-weight cotton or linen. Ive had this one running all through spring this year and a customer who does childrens clothing told me last week its her go-to border for sleeve hems. She uses the 2.18-inch size and runs it along the cuff of a cotton dress. Four colour changes, done in under 20 minutes at that size. Totally repeatable at scale.
Pick a tear-away stabiliser for woven cotton, cutaway for anything stretchy like jersey or a knit cardigan. Use a topping film on towelling or waffle fabrics or the satin petals will sink. Add some directional variety by rotating alternate repeats 180 degrees for a scattered meadow effect on wider items. Stitch a 3.5 in build along a table runner edge for a market-stall-grade botanical look.
Text me via the shop chat if the four colour stops dont line up in your software and Ill check the thread sequence file for you.

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.
