That kind of thing makes my week, honestly. Its a fox head shown in profile, facing left, built almost entirely in bold satin runs of burnt orange and navy blue. The body doesnt show. Instead the lower half of the composition opens into large open folk flowers and swirling Baroque scroll shapes, half in orange and half in navy, on a white ground. Very graphic. Very flat. No gradient shading at all, which actually makes the stitching read clearly even at the smaller sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe style is somewhere between Scandinavian folk art and a bold tattoo flash sheet. I digitised it with proper directional satin on the fox face and tatami fill behind the ears, with a clean underlay holding the navy detail work so it doesnt sink into the fabric. At the smallest width the stitch count sits around 8,345 and the design stays tight and readable on linen or cotton canvas. The largest size builds up to 22,786 stitches at a density of 627, which is the one I'd put on a tote or a denim jacket back panel. And at that size those scrollwork flourishes and flowers fill the space properly, nothing gets cramped.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCut a piece of cutaway stabiliser for anything stretchy like jersey or fleece. Cotton canvas and twill dont need anything heavy, a medium tearaway works fine and makes for a cleaner finish on the back. Hoop the fabric snug because theres alot of satin in that face area and any shift mid-stitch shows up fast. Center the design slightly higher than you think you need to on pouches, because the scroll base is visually lighter and the eye reads that bottom section as shorter than it really is. Skip the topping film on smooth fabric but pop a layer of water-soluble topping over any terry or fluffy fleece so the navy outline stays crisp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePair it with a rust-coloured thread bobbin if you want the back to look intentional, and some buyers have told me they frame the hoop as-is with the back showing, which I love. Stitch the 4.87-inch version on natural-coloured linen for the cleanest colour contrast. That burnt orange sitting against the navy really relies on a pale ground fabric to do its job, so dont pick anything with a warm cream or yellow tint or the orange starts to disappear into it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSend me a note if you need a smaller version for caps.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46428627206294,"sku":null,"price":3.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/BeautifulFloralFoxEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1781933082","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/floral-fox-5","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
