Autumn Leaves Embroidery Design, Fall Foliage Machine Pattern, Instant Download

Five colours, 7537 stitches, 3.5 inches wide by 1.63 tall, thats a nice compact size for a left-chest placement or a hem accent. I make alot of autumn designs but I keep coming back to the simple leaf cluster format because customers actually use it on everything, napkins, totes, sweatshirts, even quilt sashing. One customer ordered this last october for a set of matching napkins for a thanksgiving dinner, she stitched it in the corner of each one and said guests kept asking where she bought them from.

The density is 205 and the digitising in professional digitising tools kept the directional fills running with the natural grain of each leaf shape. That detail matters more than people realise, when satin runs against the leaf vein direction it looks flat, when it runs with it the whole thing reads as dimensional. Add a tearaway stabiliser for woven fabrics like linen napkins or cotton poplin. Use cutaway if youre putting this on a fleece or sweatshirt material.

Text me if the download doesnt arrive after payment, sometimes spam filters eat the email. Avoid running this on dark olive green fabric without testing contrast first, the olive coloured leaves in the design can disappear into the background. Pick a light or neutral ground colour and all five thread colours come through properly. Add a topping on textured fabrics like waffle-knit or terry to stop the fabric peeking between the satin lines.

Skip synthetic blends if you want the colours to read warm. Natural cotton and linen hold autumn thread tones better than poly blends do, the colours stay truer wash after wash. Text me a quick note if you need the leaf colour palette adjusted for a different season and Ill prep the file.
