Jellyfish Floral Embroidery Design, Boho Coastal Machine Embroidery Pattern, Instant Download

The jellyfish bell sits at the top, filled with satin stitching in soft lavender, the edges shaped into gentle scallops that give it a bit of dimension. Trailing down from the bell are the tentacles, each one branching into tiny sage floral clusters at the tips. The florals use directional satin with underlay passes underneath, so they stay lifted and dont flatten out the way applique petals sometimes do. Its a genuinely unusual combination, ocean creature meets botanical garden, and somehow it works.

I used a density of 695 stitches per square inch across the design, which keeps the satin coverage solid without overworking the fabric. Aqua canvas is what I tested it on first, the colour contrast between the bell and those sage tips really pops against that background. Stitch the bell section on cutaway stabiliser, the density in the centre needs it, tearaway wont give you enough stability there. Use a light topping if youre working on canvas so the bobbin thread doesnt show through the fill.

9 sizes go from 2.25 inches wide up to 4.82 inches, stitch counts running from 9,659 to 25,119. Last spring a customer ordered the 4-inch version for a set of coastal-themed tote bags, she said the colour sequencing came through exactly as expected when she ran the files. The colour placement runs bell first, then the tentacle satin, then the tiny florals at the tips last. Pair the design with a neutral linen background and those purple-to-green tones breathe properly, they can get lost on busy prints.

Add medium-weight cutaway stabiliser on the back of any stretchy fabric you use, the satin density in the bell area needs that support or it will pull. Format coverage details live on the file-formats page; your machine is covered. Pick whichever size fits your project and the stitch count scales proportionally across all nine options.
