Playful Double Dolphins Embroidery Design, Instant Download

Two bottlenose dolphins caught mid-jump in 10 colours, both grinning like theyve just spotted lunch. The front dolphin leans low with its tail flicked back, the second one rises behind it, fins overlapping cleanly. Bright sky blue tops. Cream white bellies. Lil pink mouths open wide and you can practically hear them squeak.

Bodies use directional satin so the curve of each dolphins back catches light properly, you actually see the muscle line under the fill. Belly fill switches to a softer grey-blue underlay so it dosent flatten out. Eyes sit as tight black dots and theres no detail lost there. The mouths layer 2 colours for depth.

I drew this one for my niece last summer when she got obsessed with the aquarium shop. People keep buying it for swim team gear, beach birthday parties, ocean theme nursery sets aswell.

Pop it on white cotton tees, light denim totes, or pale aqua hoodies. Skip dark navy because the cream belly will look muddy against it. With 10 colour changes and 35k stitches at the biggest size youll really want a medium weight cutaway stabiliser hooped firm with a 75/11 sharp needle and 40wt rayon thread for that glossy ocean shine.

Best results come from running the biggest version on a 5x7 or 6x10 hoop. So if your machine maxes out at the 4x4 size, drop to the 12k stitch one, the detail still reads clean. Any file issues just send a quick note and I'll sort it.
