Flowers Growing from Book with Butterflies Embroidery Design, Instant Download

The book is open flat, pages fanned out wide, the spine sitting at the bottom centre in a warm tan colour. The pages sit in that aged cream tone, horizontal stitch lines running across to mimic actual paper. And then from the very centre of those pages, everything just takes off upward.

Its a proper wildflower explosion. Tall stems reach up with orange daisy-type blooms at the top, the kind with lots of petals and a tight dark centre. Then theres white cosmos flowers on the left side, fluffy and soft looking against all the saturated colour. Pink and dark rose blooms fill the middle section, some open fully, some still in bud, plus little orange round berry clusters on branching stems. Dark green leaves thread through all of it and stop the whole thing from feeling too top heavy. Seven colours total, six colour changes, which is what gives this piece its real depth.

Three or 4 butterflies sit through the arrangement at different sizes. Two of them have that classic monarch wing shape, the large one on the right is detailed enough you can see the wing pattern. A smaller dark butterfly sits on the left, wings open mid-flight. The sparkle diamond accents around the outside are a nice touch too, just a few four-point stars that add to the fairy-tale feeling. My niece bought this one last summer for her daughters teacher as an end-of-year gift and said it got a proper reaction, so I can vouch for how it lands in person.

This is a tall design, up to 10 inches on the largest size, so make sure your hoop can handle it. Stitch count goes up to 66k on the big version, so plan for 45 to 60 minutes on a home machine. Float a woven cotton or quilting fabric over a firm stabiliser layer and it'll come out clean. Use white, ivory or pale linen so all 7 colours show off properly. Skip dark or busy fabric because the cream book pages dont show up against anything too dark. Grab me on chat if the colour sequence sheet needs clarifying, happy to walk through the stops.
