Combat Boot with Yellow Flowers Embroidery Design, Instant Download

Mocked up the combat boot with yellow flowers and its got soft-punk boho energy. Single pale dove-grey lace-up combat boot, mid-calf height, with bright pink magenta laces zigzagging up the front through the eyelets. Pink trim runs along the sole edge. Bursting out the top of the boot is a thick bouquet of butter-yellow daisies, lots of pointed green leaves and a few smaller yellow buds tucked between em. Ten colours total, properly bold.

Boot itself is built from a soft directional fill in dove-grey with darker grey shadow stitching laid on the toe creases and the lacing tongue. And the eyelets are tiny ring-shaped satin loops with the pink lace threading through em in alternating diagonals. Each daisy is a layered satin flower with pointed yellow petals around a darker amber centre, so they read as proper flowers, not flat circles. Leaves use two greens layered for shadow and depth.

I drew this for boho fashion makers, festival merch and the alt-girl crowd doing custom denim work. Its 2.61 by 3.51 inches at the small end and tops out at 5.59 by 7.51, so it works as a chest hit on a tee or a back panel of a denim jacket. A customer ordered the 6-inch last june for a festival capsule of black denim shorts, stitched on the back pocket of each pair. She sent over the photos and the pink laces popped against the dark denim properly.

For best results stitch on washed denim, raw canvas, twill or a heavier cotton. Black, charcoal, sage or pale dusty pink fabric all let the boot and flowers sing differently. But skip slippery satin, the dense flower fill puckers lightweight stuff. Avoid black if you want the boot grey to read as light, it gets washed out and looks muddy on the dark fabric.

Density runs around 967 per square inch with 40k stitches on the largest size, so its a heavy stitch-out. Try a light cutaway stabiliser. Hoop tight and lay a topping film over the hoop if youre stitching on a brushed denim aswell. Slow the daisy section down so the petal layers stitch crisp and dont overlap.
