Colorful Lotus Flower Embroidery Design, Floral Machine Embroidery, Instant Download

This lotus is kinda the most involved floral in this collection, and it shows in the stitch count. actually putting it honestly: 7 colours, density at 779, and the petal satin is digitising with individual directional fill so each layer catches the light differently. At the smallest size its 15,536 stitches across 2.93 inches, and the largest goes up to 36,562 stitches at 6.26 inches wide, five sizes total. That density means youre gonna want a proper cutaway stabiliser underneath, this isnt a design you can get away with light tear-away on anything stretchy.

Send me a note if your machine throws a thread-break error on the colour changes and Ill walk you through the sequence, its 7 stops, each one cleanly separated in the file so you can assign your own colours if you want a cooler or warmer palette. I had a customer last april who was doing an entire yoga studio batch and she messaged me about the colour sequence so I walked her through it step by step, no problem.

The underlay stays tight on each petal segment so the applique-style layers dont bleed into each other during stitching. Bobbin tension matters more on a dense design like this, keep it standard and test on a scrap first before going on your final fabric. The hooped area needs to be larger than the design footprint by about half an inch on all sides to avoid hoop burn on the fabric edge. Run the customising pass after your test stitch confirms registration is clean.

Stitch it on a tote, a zip pouch, or a linen cushion cover and it genuinely looks like something from a boutique. Use the 4-inch centre on a left-chest shirt placement for a kinda understated but rich look. Add it to a yoga bag in deep teal thread and the colours pop in a completely unexpected way. Send me a quick message if you need a colour map for the petal layers and Ill share the thread chart from the original digitising file.
