Tornado Twister with Houses Embroidery Design, Instant Download

Sketchy tornado funnel spiraling down to a point at the bottom, drawn in loose hand-inked grey and black lines. Tiny houses, trees, and bits of debris swirl around the cone like the storm just picked up a whole street. The top is wide and curling, the tail is narrow and twisty. Theres a real disaster-cartoon mood here.

Theres just three thread colours which keeps things simple. White R255 G255 B255 for the lighter swirl bands, a mid grey R181 G181 B181 for the body shading, and black for the outline and debris details. Density runs light at 476 stitches per square inch, the lightest piece I been digitising in a while. Storm vibes. Real loose feel.

I made this in october after a customer in oklahoma sent me a request, she wanted something for tornado-shelter-kit tote bags her family was putting together for the season. She got the file recieved and stitched within the week, said the funnel reads even on textured canvas at the smallest hoop. Stitches run from 8,747 up to 21,265 across nine sizes, smallest is 3.5 inches wide and tallest is 7.5 inches. Thats a wide jump for a storm piece.

For best results pick a sturdy mid-weight cotton or canvas. Skip stretch jersey, the long curving line stitches will distort if the fabric pulls. Tearaway stabiliser works on this one because the density is light, no need for heavy cutaway unless your hooping is loose. Hoop tight regardless, dont let the fabric drift. One layer is enough.
