The blooms sit right at the top where the dorsal fin begins, three big flowers in yellow, red-orange, and coral pink, with dark green leaves tucked between em. The body shades sky blue down to navy on the belly and fins, with a sand-coloured throat stripe running underneath. Thirteen colours total and 12 colour changes across the stitch run.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI digitised this one with the floral sections in satin columns so the petals have that slightly raised, velvety feel when youre running your finger across em. The body uses tatami fill with directional stitching along the curves so the blue shading reads like light catching a real dolphins back. The outlines are bold black which kinda ties the whole thing together, beach poster style. Honestly one of my favourite combinations Ive done, flowers plus ocean animal just really works.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA marine sanctuary gift shop on the coast reached out last march about using this for their volunteer appreciation caps. They ran the 4.5-inch version on navy structured caps and those coral and butter blooms popped hard against the dark brim. They ordered a second batch three weeks later so Im guessing those caps went fast.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStitch on white, cream or sky blue fabric for best impact. Warm petal colours get completely lost on busy patterned cotton so choose a plain ground. Use a cutaway stabiliser on the floral section because the satin columns need firm backing or the petals curl at the edges. Pop the 3.5-inch size on tote bag pockets or canvas cosmetic pouches. Avoid stretchy swimwear fabric even though the ocean theme tempts ya, its density is just too high for stretch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDensest zones are the petals and the upper body fill. Run a slower machine speed through those sections. The full 7-inch size tops out at 86k stitches so plan for about 20 minutes of stitch time. Reach out if the file gives you any colour-order issues on your machine and ill check the sequence and adjust it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46366246305942,"sku":null,"price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/FloralDolphinEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1777528113","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/floral-dolphin","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
