School LOVE Embroidery Design, Instant Download

The word LOVE, except every letter is a school object. L is an orange ruler, laid on its side, those little measurement tick marks stitched in black along the body. O is a big red apple with a soft pink teardrop highlight inside it and two dark green leaves at the top. V is a yellow pencil pointing down, pink eraser tip at the top, black wood tip at the bottom. E is a tidy stack of books, red spines with white page edges, slightly tilted so they look like theyd fall if you bumped them.

8 colours total and the my professional tool digitising is dense at 1,213 stitches per square inch, which is actually what makes this thing pop on finished fabric. The satin fill on that apple has real depth to it. Stitch count runs from about 20k on the 5-inch all the way to 38k on the biggest size, so its not a lightweight design, youre getting real coverage on every letter element.

I had a customer who teaches primary school put this on a white linen tote bag for teacher appreciation week last year and she said her whole class recognised what the letters were supposed to be immediately, which made me happy because thats kinda the point. The apple O is the part people always clock first. Pop it on cream or white fabric and those red and yellow tones really come alive against the light background.

Pair a dense cutaway, this one has got density on both woven and knit so you want the backing to hold. Hoop a bit looser if youre going on a stretch fabric because the fill can pucker on jersey. Satin stitch with this much colour change needs clean hooping, the ruler and pencil elements have fine directional fill that goes sideways and if the hoop slips even a bit you lose that crisp edge. Stick to white, cream or pale grey for cleanest results.
