{"product_id":"dragonfly-lotus","title":"Dragonfly Lotus Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eWings spread flat and angled slightly to one side like its just landed mid-hover. Thats the moment this design captures. Aqua and pale blue thread runs in fine parallel lines across each wing panel, and theres a thin black vein structure that holds it together. The body is slim, dark, satin column stitching all the way down.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBelow, a pink lotus sits fully opened, petals fanning out in a dark magenta to soft pink gradient, with a warm orange and yellow centre. Two large green lily pads frame the flower, and the whole composition is bordered by a pair of tall cattails in brown and golden yellow. Alot of detail packed into the borders without it ever feeling cluttered, and Im always pleased with how the cattail texture comes out.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI drew this one for a customer last spring who was digitising a whole pond-life collection. She ordered the medium 5-inch size on linen tea towels and the wings stitched out realy well on that fabric. Since then I hear from buyers doing spa-themed tote bags and bathroom hand towels, which makes total sense honestly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStitch on cream linen, sage cotton, or white waffle fabric for the most natural look. The aqua wings pop best on pale or oatmeal grounds. Dont use dark colours here, the magenta lotus needs a light backing to read clearly. Use heavyweight cutaway on woven or linen, switch to cutaway on knit fabric or anything with stretch. Try the medium 5-inch across a cotton shopper first before committing to larger sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNine colours total: aqua, dark magenta, dark green, yellow, white, brown, orange and black, plus a secondary green. Stitch count runs from just over 12,500 on the 3.5-inch up to 33,000 on the 7-in top size size. And if the wings stitch out thicker than you wanted, ease your machine speed down a notch on the fine vein underlay sections. Holler if anything in the file needs adjusting, Ill sort those same day.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46384557129878,"sku":null,"price":4.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/DragonflyLotusEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1778738797","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/dragonfly-lotus","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
