Spooky Pumpkin Bow Halloween Embroidery Design, Instant Download

Message me if your sizing needs dont match the 5 listed, but most hoops should be covered. The pumpkin here is the rounded classic shape with carved triangle eyes and a curved slit smile, and theres a big decorative bow sitting right on top of the stem. Its that mix of slightly creepy and genuinely cute that makes it work on both kids stuff and adult halloween decor.

6 colours in total so you get orange pumpkin body, black carved sections, green stem, a cream or ivory for the bow, and a couple of accent threads for the outline and detail passes. The density runs at 796 and professional tools set the underlay structure before the satin fill columns went in, so the orange sections stitch out without the ribbing effect you get on dense pumpkin shapes if the prep isnt done right. 16,786 stitches at the 3.35 inch size up to 42,852 at the full 7.18 inch version.

One customer told me she'd been looking for a pumpkin design with a bow for ages because her daughter wanted it on a halloween sweatshirt. She went for the 5-inch run and hooped it on black fleece with a cutaway stabiliser underneath, came out realy well she said. Use a firm cutaway for fleece or thick cotton. Pop a medium cutaway under regular woven fabric, and go with tearaway on linen if you want the back looking clean.

Stitch it in all 6 threads on an orange or cream ground for a full colour pop, or go single in black on navy cotton for a more understated fall look. Skip cheap thread on the bow detail, its the standout element and thin thread loses the satin sheen.
