The centrepiece is a big open rose in rose pink, its petals done in dense directional satin that catches the light really nicely when its hooped up properly. Above it, a couple of rosebuds on slim stems, and tucked in on both sides are those little purple lavender sprigs with their tiny cluster heads. Periwinkle blue forget-me-nots with golden yellow centres sit on the left, and a couple of pink daisy-style blooms fill out the lower edges. All of it backed by grass-green leaves, some broad and pointed, some fern-like fronds that fan out wide. The whole thing has that traditional hand-embroidered feel, clean outlines around each element, satin fills that run in different directions depending on the flower so everything reads as separate and distinct.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI digitised this with pro digitising tools and the density sits at around 943 stitches per square centimetre on the main rose area, which means the petals hold their shape really well on linen, cotton twill and even denim without the fabric pulling in. The 5 inch version works great on canvas tote bags, thats probably where Ive seen it used most. A crafter messaged me last week saying she'd had it stitched onto nine tote bags for a summer flower show and they looked gorgeous. Stitch counts run up to about 48,000 on the largest size, so do use cutaway stabiliser, not tearaway, the density really needs it. Theres alot of satin coverage on those rose petals and a thin tearaway just wont hold the underlay.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHoop your fabric drum-tight before you start, any slack and the rose petals will look wonky once you pull it off the frame. Use a topping on velvet or terry cloth so the satin stitches dont sink into the pile. The 3 colours on the lavender are quite fine, so slow your machine speed down for those sections if your bobbin tension isnt perfect. Skip the jump-stitch trim on the forget-me-not centres and trim those yourself by hand instead, they're tiny and the auto-trimmer sometimes clips the satin. Pair this with a cream or white base fabric and the whole colour palette really pops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShoot me a message and I can lighten the underlay for knits.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46430815125654,"sku":null,"price":4.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/ElegantRose_LavenderFloralBouquetEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1782207783","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/elegant-rose-lavender-floral-bouquet","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
