Sun Sand Surf Embroidery Design, Machine Embroidery Pattern, Instant Download

Heres the Sun Sand Surf design done in that stacked retro vacation poster style. SUN sits up top in mustard yellow, SURF cuts the middle in teal, and SAND anchors the bottom in a warm sandy brown. Two black palm tree silhouettes lean over the centre word so the whole thing reads like a faded postcard from 1978.

Each letter is a fully stitched fill so the colour really shows up on fabric, you arent just getting an outline. Alot of summer typography designs use thin script and they look fine on paper but kinda dissapear on a tee. I digitised this one to actually pop on cotton.

Runs in 4 thread colours total. Honestly im suprised how much character those two palm silhouettes add, they give the design depth that pure typography wouldnt have. The overlap with the teal SURF letters is the bit that sells it.

Last summer one customer ordered the 6 inch hoop size for a beach house housewarming and stitched a full set of mustard tea towels with it. Works on summer tees, beach totes, pool bags, kids cover-ups, anything you would wear to the coast. People have been stitching it on the back yoke of denim jackets aswell which looks killer in person.

Stitch on light cotton or sand canvas, the mustard and teal really sing against natural tones. Add cutaway behind knits and slow your machine down on the palm silhouette rows since the black goes dense. Skip dark navy or charcoal here because the brown SAND letters get lost. Top size is 7.51 inches so it fits a standard 5x7 hoop. Forward image if a test stitch reads off on test stitch.
