Ten colours and a density of 1,167 makes this one of the more involved designs in the shop, stitch counts run from 23,142 at the 3.51-inch smallest up to 64,706 at the full 7.51-inch size, which is a serious output at the large end. The the software I use digitising lays each concentric ring as a separate satin zone so the colour transitions stay crisp and dont bleed at the boundaries. The cobalt iris sits cleanest when the underlay for the turquoise ring beside it is stitched first, so sequence matters. Back in january I was finishing the last size tests on this one and Im still pleased with how the colour zoning held up across all nine sizes.

Nine sizes from 3.51 to 7.51 inches wide, nearly square in proportions at 3.45 to 7.38 inches tall. And with ten colour changes youre going to want to thread up everything before you start, trust me, stopping mid-stitch to find a replacement spool of terracotta is alot more frustrating than it sounds. Pop firm cutaway all fabric types; at density 1,167 nothing else will hold the satin flat through washing. Add water-soluble topping on velvet or heavily napped fabrics. Ive had customers tell me theyre suprised by how clean the ring transitions look even on the smaller sizes.

A customer wrote me last month saying shed been using the 5-in feature on run of linen wall hoops for an interior design client and the concentric rings were holding up beautifully after the finishing wash, thats exactly what its supposed to do. The colour palette suits neutral linen, textured cotton, and even dark indigo denim where the cobalt thread almost disappears and you get just the warm gold and cream tones reading. Pop it on a wall hoop, a cushion, or a canvas tote and it reads as a proper decorative object rather than just a motif.

Wash on a cool gentle cycle and line-dry, dense satin at 1,167 stays vivid on cotton and linen through repeated washes when treated gently.
