Butterfly Dandelion Embroidery Design, Instant Download

Dandelion with butterflies replacing the seeds, black silhouette, 5 sizes from 6 to 10 inch. Got this one sorted last spring after a customer asked for something nature-themed but not too literal. The dandelion stem curves up from the lower left, the seed head sits at the base all bunched together and instead of the usual seeds floating off the top, its butterflies. Each lil butterfly is a separate element, wings open, scattered in a loose arc going up and to the right. Some tight together near the head a few trailing far out. Its a whimsical silhouette the kind of thing people wont immediately recognise as embroidery until they look close.

Stitch range 10,936 to 19,252, single colour black thread, no stops mid-run. 112 trims on the smaller size so there will be jump stitches to clip, but thats the nature of scattered element designs. Drop a mid cutaway and I find a lightweight water-soluble topping helps the butterfly wing edges come out sharper on any fabric with a nap or texture.

Garden-club moms keep writing me asking for variations with extra butterflies or a second stem, and its the kind of design that shows up year round not just spring. Best on natural-colour or white fabric so the silhouette reads cleanly. Send a chat note message if the file comes out wrong on your first test run and Ill sort it straight away.
