Cute Ducklings Family Embroidery Design, Instant Download

Three little ducklings waddling along a green pond oval, each one doing its own thing. Left duckling has its head down like its sniffing the grass. Middle one stands tallest with a tiny tuft on the head, looking sideways. Right one is leaning forward like its trying to keep up. Honestly theres something about the way they move together that just reads as a real little duck family on a saturday morning.

The feathers are done in butter yellow with golden amber shading underneath so the bodies actually have depth instead of looking like a flat yellow blob. Bright orange feet and bills pop against the green pond base, and theres a lil rosy pink blush on each face. Eleven colours total including two shades of green for the pond and grass tufts. The directional stitching on each duckling body follows the natural feather growth which is what makes them look fluffy rather than flat.

I get alot of messages from duck farm owners and rural homeware shops about this one. One customer ordered it last spring for a set of cream linen tea towels to sell in her farm gate shop. She sent me photos and ya could see every single duckling clearly from across the counter. The design works in the smallest 1.97-inch size on a bib pocket aswell as the full 3.26-inch across a tote front.

Stitch on cream cotton, oatmeal linen, soft white fleece or pale yellow canvas for cleanest results. Use a medium tearaway stabiliser on woven fabrics and switch to cutaway if youre hooping jersey or stretch knit. The pond oval has solid satin fill at the base so hoop it snug, the shape needs to stay anchored. Skip patterned fabric here, the 11 colours need a plain ground to read properly.
