Color Splash Dragonfly Embroidery Design, Nature Watercolor Machine Embroidery, Instant Download

Six colours and that big wing spread, thats what makes the dragonfly design work. The body uses teal and dark blue for the segmented sections, the wings are a pale silver-grey satin that sits almost translucent on lighter fabrics, and the splash element surrounding the figure pulls in a warm coral and an orange-adjacent tone that gives the whole composition a sunset-over-water kind of feeling. Stitch count sits at 13,994 for the 3.5 inch width, running up to 36,908 at 7.5 inches wide, density is 132 which means the satin on the wings stitches out smooth without flattening the fabric.

In terms of stabiliser I go tearaway on cotton and quilting fabric here. The density isnt so high that you need cutaway on stable wovens. Run a topping layer on fleece or terry cloth and your wing satin fills wont sink into the pile. Directional stitching on the wing areas, the angle shifts between the four wing panels so you get that slight light-shift effect when the fabric moves. Last june one customer specifically recieved the design to use on a kids summer dress and said the wings caught the light when her daughter moved around, which is exactly the effect I was going for.

8 sizes, 3.5x2.69 inches up to 7.5x5.77 inches. Wider than tall, so it sits naturally on horizontal surfaces like a bag flap or a hat brim. a chest 3.5 is great for a shirt chest pocket area or a denim jacket sleeve. Stitch it on a canvas yoga bag for something a bit unexpected.

Suprised at how often the dragonfly sells to people making garden-themed gift sets. Done. Dm me if a format file isnt reading correctly on your machine and Ill sort you out with whatever format your software needs.
