Floral Gecko Lizard Embroidery Design, Instant Download

Floral gecko silhouette in a single bright green thread, 2 sizes around 4 to 5 inch tall. This is the botanical silhouette type where the lizard and the flowers are both in the same green so they read as one unified piece. The gecko itself is mid-climb, head up, tail curling down. Big open tropical blooms and thick leaves wrap around the body, its got that cut-paper aesthetic where everything renders in solid fill with no outlines separating the elements. Really really works on plain fabric, the texture of the satin does the visual work.

Wilcom EmbroideryStudio digitising, stitch count goes from 13,561 at the smaller size up to 25,424. Thats alot of satin coverage, especially in the flower petal areas. Back it with a no-show mesh cutaway, not tearaway. The gecko tail runs narrow and long and tearaway wont support it through washing. On stretchy fabrics add a second layer of stabiliser between the cutaway and the fabric.

Im digitising the gecko body with directional satin so the stitches follow the grain of lizard skin rather than a flat fill, you can kinda see it once its stitched out. A customer ordered this last month on a natural canvas tote for a reptile-lover birthday and said it looked like a hand-carved block print. Stitch on white, mint, or light teal so the single green thread gets a layered effect from the directional changes catching light differently across the body versus the flowers. Pop it on cream linen and it reads like a botanical wall print.
