Floral Mushroom Bouquet Embroidery Design, Whimsical Cottagecore Machine Embroidery, Instant Download

Three mushrooms grow up out of a loose bouquet of flowers, which is not how any of this works in real life but thats exactly what makes it work as an embroidery design. The tallest mushroom at the back has a small orange fan-shaped cap, the pink cone-hat one sits to the left on a thin straight stem, and the main mushroom in the centre is the standout one. Big pink rounded cap, orange spots across the top, teal gills underneath where the stem connects. That teal detail is what makes people stop and look twice.

Below the mushrooms the flowers cluster together like a proper cut arrangement. 2 large pink daisy-type heads with deep orange satin centres take up most of the lower half. Small orange 5-petal flat blossoms fill the gaps and a handful of vivid green leaves point outward at different angles to frame everything. Its not symmetrical and its not trying to be. The composition leans slightly left which gives it that casual picked-from-a-garden feeling.

6 colours run in sequence, adding up to around 14.4k stitches on the smallest size and 28.7k on the largest. Use a woven cutaway on soft cotton jersey or knit fabrics so the cluster holds its shape across the wide horizontal span. Pop the topping film on before you hoop if youre going on anything with texture, because those orange spots on the pink cap need clean coverage to read right. Woven cotton and canvas tote fabric run clean with just a woven tearaway. Skip cap embroidery on this one since the cluster composition needs a flat surface to read correctly.

Customers keep asking about this constantly from the cottagecore crowd, and last autumn a customer told me she stitched it onto a denim jacket back panel and wore it to a craft fair where 5 people asked where she got it. Text me if a colour isnt reading right and ill sort it quickly.
