Floral Human Heart Line Art Embroidery Design, Instant Download

Its an anatomical heart but done up with flowers growing right out of it. The top of the heart, where the aorta and vessels normally come out, shows a bunch of large open peonies and long pointed leaves instead, and 3 more peony blooms grow sideways out of the lower left and right edges. The heart itself carries all the proper anatomical detail, the chambers, vessels and that curved bottom tip, but the veins and aorta swap out for floral stems so it reads like a medical textbook page that got taken over by a botanist. Kinda wild honestly.

1 colour, black, no fills whatsoever, just outline satin columns and running stitch along every edge. Stitch count runs from 22,629 at 5 inches up to 39,378 at the 9-inch size, so this one takes some time to run, especially at the larger formats. Theres 157 trims across the whole design, which is normal for this density of line work. The stabiliser call is tearaway on medium-weight cotton or linen, but dont skip the cutaway on anything stretchy. Use a 75/11 sharp needle and slow down to about 600 spm on the tighter sections.

I sell this one a lot to people doing anatomy-themed gifts. Last April customers were buying it for nursing school graduations and medical staff pieces. One customer stitched the 7-inch version on a black denim jacket back and sent me a photo, it looked like a tattoo flash piece, really sharp against the dark ground.

Pair it with black thread on cream or white linen for the cleanest botanical illustration feel. Try it on dark navy for the inverted look. Skip any fabric with texture or nap because the fine outline work gets buried. And if the file gives you any trouble just send me a message and Ill sort it out fast.
