Baby Feet Heart Embroidery Design, Instant Download

Two little black baby footprints sat inside a flowing heart frame that wraps around them in one continuous loop, with tiny heart cutouts cleverly negative-spaced into the sole of each foot. Single colour black, the whole motif reads in one quick scan, no fussy detail to lose at smaller sizes. The heart frame uses a thick satin outline that swoops with a tapered tail at the bottom right, gives it that hand-drawn calligraphy energy instead of a stiff symmetrical heart shape.

Three sizes, smallest is 2 inches at 1,979 stitches and largest is 4 inches at 4,904 stitches. Single colour, single needle pass, no colour stops to manage. Density runs 322 which sits on the softer side, so it lays flat on cotton baby onesies, muslin swaddles, and bib fronts without pulling the fabric. The heart cutouts on the soles are 2-3 mm windows of bare fabric and they reproduce cleanly even at the smallest hoop size which is honestly the test for whether a tiny detail like that can travel.

Im running this through my digitising suite, directional satin underlay sits under the heart loop and a tatami fill on the foot silhouettes. The tatami stitch direction is angled slightly off the grain so the soles dont catch the light as a flat slab, you get a soft sheen instead. I had a customer last Christmas order a stack of 8 to stitch on muslin keepsake cards for her sisters baby shower and the 2-inch size hooped four-up in a 5x7 frame so she got the whole job done in one sitting.

Dm me if you want it in pink, sage, or dusty blue thread instead of black and ill swap the colour stop in the file before sending. Best on white, ivory, pastel pink, mint, and pale grey cotton, muslin, soft fleece, and lightweight terry. Use lightweight tearaway behind woven cotton and switch to soft cutaway for stretchy onesie ribbing. Skip thick terry, those tiny windows get swallowed in the pile. Pop a topping over any visible weave so the satin reads smooth.
