Drew this up specifically for people who wanted a standing witch instead of an airborne pose. Shes upright, completely still, holding her broom vertically like shes just landed or about to head off. The hat is classic and tall, the skirts pool at the bottom, and the broom bristles fan out right beside her feet. Nothing fancy about the composition, its a clean full-body silhouette that works because its not trying to be complicated.
Four sizes from 2.51 inches wide up to 5.51 inches, stitch range 5,844 to 16,427. Single colour, zero colour changes, 13 trims on the smallest and 21 on the largest. Density clocks in at 557 per unit, noticeably above the airborne variant because the longer unbroken skirt areas need extra satin coverage to lay flat. The digitising is through digitising tools, and the hat tip has its own directional run so it doesnt just kinda blend into the head mass.
Graphite black 40wt thread on a kraft-coloured pillow cover is the combo I keep reaching for with this one. The warm beige-brown ground makes the black silhouette feel more vintage than spooky, which opens it up beyond halloween season. A customer hooped the 4-in face on a raw linen cushion and used it as year-round cottage decor, honestly didnt look out of place in January. Stick to medium cutaway stabiliser, the long skirt sections are big flat fills that need something behind them.
Hoop this onto kraft canvas first if you havent stitched satin silhouettes before. Skip silky polyester grounds, theyll pucker around the skirt fills. Pair with smaller bat motifs for a scattered tote panel layout.
What people are using this design for
A starting point. The design works for plenty more than just this list, this is what folks have stitched it onto most.
- Halloween and autumn throw pillow coversStitch the 4-in face on a kraft or raw linen pillow panel, graphite 40wt thread for a muted vintage feel.
- Kitchen tea towels with a vintage spooky aestheticRun the 2.51-inch size on a set of linen tea towels, four across the hem for a repeating border pattern.
- Trick-or-treat bags and seasonal tote bagsUse the 4-inch run on a canvas tote side panel, the tall hat fills vertical space better than the flying design.

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.
