Purple Floral Blossom Embroidery Design, Instant Download

Three open purple lily-style blossoms clustered together with slim green stems and narrow pointed leaves fanning out behind them in 5 colours. Each flower opens up wide with five long petals, the kind that curl back at the tips when a real lily is mid-bloom.

The colour work is whats selling it. Petals fade from pale lilac at the edges into deep magenta veining down the centre, all done with directional satin so the stitching follows the natural petal grain. Leaves are 2 shades of green, fresh and forest, with a darker stem outline so they pop forward.

I drew this one in early March when my mum was asking for something for her gardening tote. Honestly it came out softer than Id expected and shes been showing it off at her allotment ever since. People keep ordering it for spring wedding favours, mothers day pieces, kitchen linen sets aswell.

Pop it on natural linen, oatmeal cotton, cream canvas, or pale sage. Skip black or deep navy because the lilac edges fade right into the dark, looses all that gradient detail. With 5 colour changes and 50k stitches at the biggest size youll want a firm cutaway stabiliser hooped tight, no flexing.

Stitch the 5x7 on a left chest of a gardening apron and the 6x10 across the front of a tote bag. Use 40wt rayon or polyester for the petals, that lil shine is what gives it the painterly look. Slow your machine down for the magenta veining lines, theyre sat right on top of the lilac fill and need clean placement.
