Christmas Flamingo Trio Embroidery Design, Instant Download

Three flamingos who clearly did not get the memo that they live somewhere warm. The two outer birds are deep coral red, both standing on one leg the way flamingos do, and each one has a full red santa hat on their head with a lil aqua blue pompom at the tip. The centre flamingo is a softer blush pink and shes wearing a red scarf wrapped around her long neck, kinda dangling down. Each hat is slightly different too, one has a lime yellow-green star badge detail, which I honestly liked more than I expected when I was digitising it.

Six colours, 5 thread stops, five sizes from 2.44 inches wide scaling up to 7.5. The stitch count tops out at 16,682 on the largest so its a genuinely dense, well-filled piece. industry software laid the body fills with a slight directional lean following the birds neck curves, so the coral and pink dont look flat. The holiday hat sections are tight satin columns and the scarfs fringe is done in short individual underlay stitches so it reads as a proper dangling fringe rather than a blob.

Drew up this one for a customer who runs a beachside resort gift shop in florida and wanted non-traditional christmas merch last november. She said her guests were absolutely suprised when they saw flamingos in santa hats, kept pulling em off the rail. Since then its become one of my most-reordered seasonal designs among tropical-location apparel sellers and beach resort boutiques.

Lay it on ivory linen or sand canvas for the cleanest colour read. Skip any fabric thats close to coral or pink because the birds just blend in. Hoop a soft polymesh under cotton fabric on stable wovens and swap to cutaway if youre hooping jersey or a stretchy fleece. The biggest sweep at 7.5 inches fills a tote front nicely and the smallest 2.5-inch fits well on a pocket or sock cuff.

Reach out if you want the file in a specific size that isnt in the set and I can see what I can do for ya.
