Cartoon Shark Embroidery Design, Instant Download

11 colours and this shark isnt scary at all, its the chunky kawaii version with big round eyes taking up way too much of its face and a wide open grin showing off a row of white teeth. Body is a teal-to-navy gradient feeling, white belly, coral and light blue accent fins. The whole thing has that oversized cartoon proportion where the head is basically the whole design and the tiny tail just barely sticks out the back.

I digitised this with satin columns on the fin edges and the tooth outlines, and tatami fill through the main body sections. Density at 730 keeps the body areas from going stiff. Stitch count goes from 12,765 at the smallest 2.93 inch version up to 34,445 at the full 6.28 inch wide size. Five sizes, 2.93 to 6.28 inches across and 3.51 inches up to 7.51 inches tall. Press a thick backer on jersey and fleece, the 11 colour changes mean theres alot of start-and-stop and you need everything anchored throughout.

Customers with kids order this one alot, and honestly I get it because theres something about cartoon animals that just never stops selling. A customer last summer put the 6.28 inch version on the back of a boys swimming rash guard and said it was the item his kid refused to take off all holiday. The smaller 2.93 inch size works on swim hats and water bottle pouches too.

Stitch on navy, white, or black fabric. The teal body reads best against dark backgrounds actually, navy or charcoal really make the lighter colours pop. Lay wash-away film over towelling or terry if youre doing a beach bag project. Skip very stretchy lycra without proper backing, the 11 colour changes create alot of tension buildup.

Five sizes, 11 colour swaps, fun to stitch and kids go absolutely wild for it.
