The hummingbird hovers mid-flight with that cream white belly front and centre, ruby-red throat patch blazing, wings spread up wide in deep green and tan beige with tight black outlines all the way round. On the left a bold red hibiscus sits against proper green leaves, and those decorative ink-splash swirls in red and black curl around the whole composition giving it genuine movement energy. Realy pleased with how the feather work came out on this one. I drew each colour zone separately so the directional satin on the wings reads different from the tatami fill on the belly, which is what makes it look three-dimensional once its stitched out.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTechnically its a dense piece, stitch counts climb up to 37,847 at the largest size so budget your thread before you start. Use a medium-weight cutaway stabiliser under denim or canvas and dont skip the topping on terry cloth or fleece or the pile eats into those fine petal edges. A buyer stitched the 5 inch version onto a natural linen market apron last spring and sent me a photo, the red hibiscus practically glowed against the pale cloth. Stitch the green head columns slowly if your machine has speed control, because those angle shifts are what give the bird that iridescent look. Pop the 3.14 inch size on a cotton twill polo at left chest and it sits neat without crowding the placket. Skip dark navy backgrounds if you want the red throat and hibiscus to read true, stick to ivory, cream, or light linen canvas and the underlay does the rest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMessage me a photo if the placement feels off centre.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46429234921622,"sku":null,"price":4.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/HummingbirdandHibiscusFlowerEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1782109739","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/hummingbird-hibiscus-flower","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
