{"product_id":"floating-island-waterfall","title":"Floating Island Waterfall Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eMy friend sent images of this one halfway through stitching and said it looked like a painting, not embroidery. The design is a vertical fantasy island scene, the kind of thing youd see in a Studio Ghibli film. The island itself is a rough chunk of rock floating in the air, the underside all dark browns and charcoals with sharp edges. On top of it sits a whole little ecosystem: a large gnarled tree with deep red autumn leaves fills the upper right, a tall blue-green conifer anchors the left side, a bare-branch tree with warm orange bark leans on the right edge, and green ground cover fills the spaces between them. Waterfall streams hang down from the rocky underside as long vertical satin stitches in pale blue, which is probably the most technically interesting bit of the whole design.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThirteen colours in total, 12 colour changes. The palette runs from deep near-black for the rock base through multiple greens for the conifers and ground plants, red and burgundy for the autumn tree, orange-brown for the bare branches, light blue for the waterfall streams, and a warm salmon-pink for the circular halo disc behind the composition. Run a layer of medium cutaway under this one regardless of fabric type. At the large end you're looking at 55,278 stitches and 12 colour stops, the design accumulates real pull as it builds up. Dont skimp on the backing here, the rock section is where you'll see shifting if the fabric moves between colour changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e9 sizes from 2.37 inches wide at the smallest to 4.47 inches at the largest, and 4.5 to 8.5 inches tall. Its a portrait-orientation design, works best on items with vertical space rather than wide horizontal placement. At 4 inches wide and 7.5 tall it fills a tote bag front well, those pale blue satin streams have room to hang without cramping. Stitch it on a neutral or light fabric where all 13 colours can breathe. That salmon halo circle is one of those details that disappears on a dark background, so skip black and navy for this one. At 2.37 inches some tree leaf detail blurs together, pick a 3-4 inch size if that red maple is important to you. Add a topping layer if youre stitching on any textured fabric, the fine satin waterfall lines need a flat surface to register cleanly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eText me if any file needs sorting out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46351022030998,"sku":null,"price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/FloatingIslandWaterfallEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1776578440","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/floating-island-waterfall","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
