Decorative Grape Cluster Embroidery Design, Instant Download

A hanging cluster of grapes, each one a rounded satin-fill sphere sitting snug against the next, with a curling vine and a single broad leaf rising from the top. Deep purple for the fruit, forest green for the leaf and stem. Just 2 colours, so colour changes are minimal and the run moves quickly. Built in industry tools, 5 hoops between 3 and 7 inches wide.01 inches, stitch counts starting at 7,442 and climbing to 21,507 at the biggest size. The grape cluster is wider than it is tall, which makes it sit nicely as a centred motif on something like a tea towel or an apron bib.

Density 550 is moderate, solid enough to give the grape spheres that puffed look without overwhelming a lighter linen or waffle cotton. Hoop a medium-weight cutaway behind your fabric and youre set for most woven kitchen textiles. I wouldnt skip the stabiliser even on dense denim, the circular satin shapes need a flat base or they come out with a slight lean. The underlay passes professional tools mapped in here keep each grape round rather than squashed, which is the whole point of this style.

A customer emailed me in autumn last year after finishing a set of 6 matching kitchen towels for a housewarming gift. She did the 5 inch cluster on off-white waffle weave and said the purple came out rich and deep, her friend thought it was a printed fabric at first glance. That kind of result is what the higher stitch density is for, it builds enough thread coverage to look almost painted rather than just stitched.

Pair this with a solid kitchen palette. Stitch it on linen tea towels, canvas wine totes, or a woven apron for that cottage-kitchen aesthetic. Skip any printed or patterned fabric, the purple disappears unless theres contrast. Email me if you run into issues and Ill rework the punch for you.
