Bow Pencil Books Apple Embroidery Design, Instant Download

Heres the school-day icon strip, packed with classroom charm. Four icons in a horizontal row. Tan satin bow on the far left, then a yellow number-two pencil with pink eraser and sharpened tip, a pair of stacked books in teal and purple covers in the middle, and a red apple with a green leaf on the right. Smallest version sits at 3.51 by 0.89 inch, biggest spans 7.51 by 1.89, so the strip fits hem trims, cuff edges, pocket bands, anywhere a square design wont land right.

Sixteen thread colours pack alot of detail into a small space. The bow uses tan satin with black ribbon trim and a darker tan shadow underneath. Pencil carries yellow body, pink eraser cap, brassy gold metal band, grey graphite point and a touch of orange highlight. Books stack with teal on top and purple underneath, both with small page lines drawn in white. Apple sits red with a brown stem and green leaf plus a soft pink highlight cause real apples have shine. Real classroom-catalogue weight to it.

August inbox fills up with school-design asks. One customer last August stitched the 6 inch panel on a teacher tote, her photo showed up the next morning of her kids whole class teaching team holding matching bags on first day. Suprised me how well the row scales down too. Even at the 4 inch hoop the apple still reads red and the bow doesnt blur. Its tighter than I expected on the small end.

Stitch this onto cream linen, plus ivory canvas, oatmeal twill, white cotton or pale grey base. Avoid charcoal or dark navy backgrounds, the teal book and the brassy pencil band wont read against dark fabric. Skip patterned florals aswell, the row is already busy with sixteen colours and dense fill on every icon. Linen tea towels, cotton totes, light canvas pencil pouches all work great for this strip.

Density lands around 1015 cause every icon crams fill into a tight strip. Smallest comes in at 5524 stitches across roughly 3.51 by 0.89 inch, the 7.51 inch hits 14405 at 7.51 by 1.89. Nine size jumps total. Stitching woven cotton totes or pencil pouches? You want a soft cutaway, frame the hoop firm, and ease speed across the colour-swap stretches cause 15 colour changes per run happen close together. Spool up two backup bobbins before kickoff, youll thank yourself later. Cut the jumps clean between icons cause theyll catch otherwise. Done right.
