Botanical Mushroom Reflection Embroidery Design, Instant Download

This one is a split design, which means its built in two halves with a solid horizontal rule through the middle. The top half shows two decorated eggs sitting among fine botanical sprigs, a wispy bell flower and delicate branching foliage. Then below the rule the same arrangement flips upside down, like a reflection in still water. Fine-line illustration style throughout, no bold fills, just careful satin and running stitches that give it that pressed-flower-from-a-book look.

Single colour in black, which is part of what makes it so versatile. Theres no colour matching to worry about and it sits cleanly on almost any fabric. The split-frame format keeps a gap in the centre where you can add a monogram or name between the two halves, alot of people use it exactly that way. But it also works just as an ornamental border piece on its own, no text needed.

Last april a customer from a small gifts studio wrote to me, she was making personalised linen pouches for a spring market and wanted something that looked hand-illustrated rather than computer-generated. She said the blackwork style matched her brand perfectly and ran the 8-inch size for the full pouch front. That kind of detailed illustration look is genuinely hard to pull off in embroidery and this one does it.

Best on natural linen, cream cotton or white canvas. Pair a fusible cutaway behind woven fabric to keep the fine running stitches clean. Skip stretch fabrics, this design has alot of small detail that needs a firm base. The single-colour approach also means the bobbin setup is dead simple, no stops mid-run unless you want to rethread for personalisation.

Four sizes from 5 inches to 8 inches wide. Stitch counts are light, 6,893 at the smallest and 10,670 at the largest, so its a quick run even on the biggest size. Email me a chat note if you want advice on centering a monogram in the gap and Ill walk you through the placement.
