The shaggy orange-brown fringe sweeps forward over the forehead in thick waves, almost covering the eyes, and a row of white daisy flowers with yellow centres sits across the top of the head like a crown. Big soft dark eyes peer out from under all that hair. Short curved horns poke out above the daisies. Seven colours, and the whole thing has that warm countryside charm thats made highland cows one of the most popular embroidery subjects going.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe fringe is the standout section. Wilcom digitised it in layered directional fill at multiple angles so it builds up the shaggy texture rather than lying flat. At the 6.85-inch width youll see individual hair-direction shifts that look almost like real fur. At 3.2 inches the fringe simplifies into a dense mass of warm brown but the face still reads clearly. Density is high at 1339 so the design needs a solid cutaway base underneath.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI put this together last spring when highland cows were selling everywhere and I wanted a version with the daisy crown rather than plain. The floral element lifts it from standard farm animal into something with a bit more personality. My niece asked for the 5-inch version on a cream apron for her new kitchen and the auburn tones against cream looked genuinely lovely. You really cant go wrong with a highland cow on natural linen, thats just a fact at this point.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBest on cream, natural linen, or white cotton so the auburn fringe reads in full. Sage green works beautifully too, the brown and white daisy contrast well against it. Use a firm cutaway underneath given the high density, and hoop with even tension across the full width. Ease the speed during the fringe fill zones, 68,000 stitches at the largest size means the machine has real work to do. Skip the fastest speed setting entirely, dont try to rush it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe densest zones are the fringe layers and the daisy petal fills. Run at 70-80 percent speed and let the satin columns settle between direction changes. Bobbin tension matters here, keep it consistent and trim floating threads between colour stops. Stitch in the digitised colour order and the fringe gradients will build correctly. Thats the only tricky part, everything else is straightforward.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46376087748758,"sku":null,"price":4.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/HighlandCowWithDaisyFlowersEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1778144191","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/highland-cow-daisy-flowers","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
