Stay Wild Floral Embroidery Design, Wildflower Script Machine Embroidery, Instant Download

This is one of those designs where the lettering and the botanical elements are actually growing through each other rather than sitting side by side. The words stay wild are written in a thick bold cursive, chunky enough to hold up at the bigger versions, and stems push upward through the gaps between the letters. A small butterfly sits left of the s, poppy shapes open up above the a, daisies and some kind of round-headed cluster fill out the right half. All of it stitched in black, one colour, zero stops except the end, send me message if that sounds too simple but it really works.

Done in the digitising software, density at 314, and the petal and leaf areas use open satin outlines instead of than filled shapes so theres a lacy quality to those sections that contrasts nicely against the thick script fill. Five sizes running from 3.5 in to the biggest at 7.5 in, stitch counts from 5,023 to 10,213. Use a light tearaway stabiliser on a firm woven canvas or denim, or switch to cutaway on anything stretchy. Pair it with a stabiliser you trust on your specific fabric weight. Skip a topping on flat-weave fabric, add one on fleece or terry to keep those open outlines sharp. Stitch at a medium speed on the larger sizes since there are 100 trims across the wildflower shapes.

I get alot of questions about whether a one-colour design is worth buying and honestly its worth it. For something like this it is. Last spring a customer wanted a set of reusable tote bags for a wildflower-themed birthday, this was the one she came back to because the single-thread line art looks like something hand-drawn over than machine-made. Best on light or neutral fabric so the black thread reads cleanly, though Ive seen it stitched on dusty rose and it looked great there too.
