Merry Christmas Rainbow with Lights Embroidery Design, Machine Embroidery Pattern, Instant Download

The palette is the whole point here. Six bulb colours going across the wire, red orange yellow green blue purple, and they hit like a full spectrum holiday sign. The lettering sits up top in a slight arch, bold and clean, and below it the wire swings down in a soft curve with the bulbs hanging off at intervals. Its a very classic string-light look but the rainbow part is what separates it from every other Christmas lights design out there.

Twelve colours total in this file and Wilcom EmbroideryStudio digitised each bulb individually with dense satin columns so they hold their shape even on stretchy fabrics. The wire itself is a thin satin run between anchor points. Stitch count runs from 11k on the smallest to 25k at 7 inches, which means its medium-heavy on the machine but nothing it cant handle with a decent cutaway stabiliser underneath.

I get a lot of orders for this one around early November from people doing Christmas market merch. Last December one of my regulars used the 6-inch version on red fleece Christmas stockings for a local market and said they sold out in the first hour. Honestly I wasnt suprised, the bulb colours pop hard on red background too, not just white.

Stitch it on a white, cream or light grey shirt for the cleanest read. Pop the small 3.3-inch version on a pocket for something subtle, or go full 7.1-inch on the chest for a statement piece. Skip dark navy or forest green unless you want a moodier retro look. The satin column bulbs need a firm cutaway to keep their round shape after washing.

Five sizes from 3.32 to 7.1 inches wide. Use a medium or heavy cutaway on jersey, tear-away on firm woven cotton or canvas. Hoop with topping on any fabric with texture so those thin wire stitches dont sink in. Hit me up if the file gives trouble.
