Thirteen colours, and about half of em are just doing the job of the sky, layering satin runs from the pale horizon tone up through the warm peachy top. At 7.5 inches wide youre looking at 45,298 stitches, which is gonna be a 15-20 minute stitch-out on a standard home machine. The density is 125, one of the higher ones in my catalogue, so I always digitise these landscape pieces with a robust underlay to keep everything flat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse a medium-weight cutaway stabiliser for this one, kinda non-negotiable when you get into five-digit stitch territory on knit or woven fabric alike. Pair it with 40wt thread for the upper colour bands, the finer thread lets the gradations blend a lil better than 30wt would. I had a customer send me a photo back in february of this stitched on a white linen beach tote, and the colour layering on the palm fronds looked genuinely impressive. The fronds themselves use a directional satin technique where each section runs at its natural angle, kinda following the curve of the leaf.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe digitising process for this took about 3 days in industry-grade software because making the horizon line look natural means the bobbin thread cant be visible between the ocean and sky colour bands, I redid that seam twice. Stitch the ocean sections at a consistent speed to keep the horizontal satin bands from showing gaps. Avoid using a topping film on smooth woven linen, it leaves a residue on the tight satin weave that's fiddly to remove. Send a chat note if you want to swap a colour before you stitch out, Im happy to advise on thread substitutions if your brand doesnt carry those exact shades.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45750378234006,"sku":null,"price":4.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/TropicalBeachwithPalmTreesEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1760941543","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/tropical-beach-palm-trees-2","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
