Cosmic Astronaut Planets Embroidery Design, Space Explorer Pattern, Instant Download

The astronaut in this design isnt doing anything heroic, just floating sideways like they dont quite know which way is up. The spacesuit is stitched in teal and burnt orange with satin columns on the arms and legs, and the helmet sits right against a big cratered planet that takes up most of the chest area. Above that theres a hot pink saturn with a gold ring, a white crescent moon curling at the top, and a tiny brown planetoid off to the side. Yellow stars and diagonal blue speed lines fill the gaps. Alot going on, but it holds together well.

Twelve colour changes and 137 trims at the 5 inch size, up to 148 trims at 8 inch. Stitch count runs from 25,094 at the smallest to 42,417 on the largest, so this is a dense design and youre gonna want a cutaway stabiliser on any stretch fabric. On wovens a medium tearaway works fine. Hoop tightly and run a test scrap first, especially if youre hooping fleece since the thick fill areas can pull at the edges.

I get messages from customers asking about the sequencing and the colour order in the PDF is what to follow. The deep blue goes down first as it covers the most area, then the teal suit, then the orange, and the white moon and stars come quite late in the run. Dont skip the stops even if your machine prompts you, because some colour overlaps are intentional and the order matters. Last december a customer sent me a photo of this stitched on a midnight blue fleece hoodie and it looked proper professional.

Four sizes from 5x3.59 inch up to 8x5.74 inch. Use the 5 inch for a left chest on a kids jacket or the front of a backpack. Pop the 7 or 8 inch on the back panel of a hoodie or a large canvas tote. Skip light coloured sheer fabrics since the density will show through the weave.
