Colorful Flower Vase Embroidery Design, Instant Download

The vase itself is a proper hourglass ceramic shape in blush pink, sitting on a small brown base with a few leaves tucked around the feet. The body of the vase carries a white daisy with a yellow center plus a tiny decorative band below it. Above the neck the flowers just explode outward. Purple round blooms, yellow five-petal daisies, teal star-shaped flowers, orange coneflowers with drooping petals, hot pink daisy heads, white small flowers all layered in together with big dark green leaves pushing out in every direction.

Twelve thread colours and 11 colour changes, so this isnt a quick stitch. The density runs around 47k stitches at the 8-inch size and 28k at the smallest 5-inch. Email me if your machine is struggling with the color-change sequence and Ill walk you through it. Two butterflies are tucked into the arrangement, one at the top of the bouquet and one perched lower on the right side, both in pink and purple with dotted markings on the wings and black outlines.

This design sells year-round but it peaks around mothers day and spring gifting. Last spring a customer used it as the center panel on a quilted table runner and the result looked genuinely impressive, the vase form works really well as a centered feature piece. At the full 8-inch it fills a full 8-by-8 hoop cleanly with no wasted space, youll see what I mean when you pull the first sew-out.

Go with a double layer cutaway because the stitch count is heavy and this design needs the backing to hold through all 12 color stops. Hoop stable medium-weight fabric, woven cotton, linen or canvas tote material all work well. Skip knit fabric for this one, the density doesnt sit right on stretch. Stitch over white or natural for the most vivid result. Pop it on a tea towel, a tote bag front panel or a cushion cover and it takes a plain piece somewhere completely different. Email me if anything in the color sequence runs off and Ill fix it fast.
