{"product_id":"sunflower-poppy-lavender-trio","title":"Sunflower Poppy \u0026 Lavender Trio Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eSo heres the sunflower, poppy and lavender trio sat side by side like a tiny meadow study. Sunflower on the left in marigold orange petals fading to burnt orange tips, brown seed-head centre with mustard rim. Poppy in the middle, scarlet petals with a small pink underbloom showing through and a black ringed centre, the tiny green seedpod hanging just below the bloom. Two stalks of lavender on the right in violet purple, dense little florets stacked up the stem.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTheres alot of detail crammed into this one. The leaves shift between three different greens, light lime to deep forest, and youll see fine thread veins running through the lavender leaves and the poppy stem. Sunflower petals each get directional stitching, so every row catches sunlight from its own angle, no flat fill anywhere. Honestly its more like a small botany illustration than a typical embroidery motif.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI sold a tonne of these last june, mostly to gardeners and a few people doing wedding tableware. One nan in cornwall ordered the seven inch version and stitched it onto a slubby linen towel for her granddaughters bridal shower as a hand-made keepsake. She emailed me a photo of the finished piece and the colour gradient on the sunflower came out gorgeous on natural linen.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBest fabrics: natural unbleached linen, oatmeal cotton, soft sage canvas, cream tea towel weave, or pale duck cloth. Skip dark fabrics, the deep green leaves will sink into navy or black. Skip stretchy jersey aswell, the dense fill will pucker on knit because theres so many colour changes packed into the satin shapes that the layers will pull. Best on a stable woven base.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDensity runs 35k stitches on the largest 5.5 inch wide file, 16k on the smallest 2.5 inch. Lay down two layers of medium cutaway, dont swap in tear-away on a flower trio this dense. Hoop tight and let the machine slow itself through the colour change runs because youll hit nineteen different threads which means alot of trims. Run topping on textured linen to stop the fine sunflower seed detail from sinking into the weave. Iron the back of your stabiliser before hooping for cleanest registration on the layered colours.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45768284143766,"sku":null,"price":4.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/SunflowerPoppy_LavenderTrioMachineEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1761466722","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/sunflower-poppy-lavender-trio","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
