Sliced Bread Loaf Embroidery Design, Instant Download

Drop this on a linen kitchen towel and people genuinely think youve done something special. Its a full sliced loaf in golden amber and dark mahogany crust, 3/4 view so you can see the depth of the thing, two slices tipped out in front showing that pale interior. The crust shading goes from golden amber at the top down through burnt orange and into deep mahogany at the sides, professional digitising software stitched it in directional satin layers so theres actual texture variation when you touch the fabric.

The bread knife sits diagonally alongside, dark handle with small gold rivets, serrated blade done in tight grey fill with directional stitching across the metal face. The cutting board underneath is a soft blush-orange, barely-there but it grounds the whole composition so it doesnt float. 14 colours total, which sounds like alot but they all earn their place in the shading sequence.

8 sizes available, from 3.25 inches wide up to 6.09 inches. Stitch counts run 23,829 at the smallest to 57,665 at the largest. I sold the 5-inch version to a woman in march who wanted it on a linen apron as a birthday gift for her mum who bakes every weekend. Ive had alot of housewarming orders on this one too.

Linen or cotton canvas is the right call here. Cream or oatmeal fabric lets the warm bread colours read properly, on white its slightly cold but still fine. Avoid any dark fabric because the cream crumb interior essentially disappears. Cutaway stabiliser, medium-weight. The knife blade area is dense enough that you want good underlay before the satin columns, so dont rush the hoop setup. Reach me a note if you want the lighter density version for lightweight cotton and ill adjust it for you.
