Cute Unicorn with Heart Balloon Embroidery Design, Instant Download

Its a winged unicorn, rearing up on its back hooves with both front legs lifted. The left front leg is curled down and the right one reaches up, its hoof wrapped around a thin curling string leading to a big heart-shaped balloon floating upper left. Body is a soft blue-grey with a light directional fill that gives it a rounded, plush feel. Mane and tail are hot pink, done in long flowing column fills that fan out into loose waves at the ends. Its the kind of cute that works for kids without looking cheap on the fabric.

The horn is a warm orange with a spiral groove stitched in a tighter satin to show the twist. Wings fold back from the shoulders, each feather row at a slightly different directional angle so they look layered. The heart balloon is a solid candy pink satin fill with small four-pointed red stars scattered across its face. A single purple star sits below the balloon to the right, and four small red cross-stars float around the unicorn body for that whimsical cartoon sparkle. Eight colour stops, density at 921 stitches per square inch, so the fills are dense and transitions come out clean.

Five sizes run from 3.38 by 3.51 inches up to 7.24 by 7.51 inches. Repeat customers keep choosing this one around birthday season, one customer ordered it twice this spring for two different girls birthday quilts in the same family. Stitch counts go from twenty-one thousand up to fifty thousand on the biggest, so its a longer running design. Use a firm medium-weight cutaway on all knits, float a water-soluble topping if your fabric has any texture. Slow the machine down through the wing feather sections. Any skipped stitches in the mane or tail, just drop me a note.
