Vintage House Building Embroidery Design, Instant Download

Heres my little vintage house tudor cottage portrait, drawn proper detailed for ya. Sand colour walls panel through with dark chocolate timber framing across the gables, the roof comes down in a steep grey shingle pitch with a chimney poking up the side, and a tiny porch sits centre with a black front door tucked into a stone arch. Three rounded shrubs sit lined up along the path and a soft sand colour walkway runs out from the porch like the homeowner just swept it.

Stitch wise this lot is a workout. There are thirteen colour changes in this build because the timber framing reads as proper Tudor only when the dark brown sits over the cream wall fill, which means heaps of layered passes. Roof shingles use directional satin in a dark grey laid in rows so you can almost count the tiles, and the hedges run a two-tone green satin with a darker outline so the bushes have abit of dimension instead of looking like flat blobs.

I been selling this one alot to estate agents and realtors who hand it to clients as a closing gift, embroidered onto a linen pillow or a tea towel for the new home. One customer who runs an estate office told me she stitched the 6.36 inch version onto a small canvas wall piece for every house sale last december and ran out of stabiliser before the year ended. Lovely problem to have honestly.

Stitch totals start at 15,961 for the 2.97 inch hoop and climb to 47,848 stitches at the full 6.36 inch width, which sits inside a 3.49 to 7.49 inch height range. The density is high at roughly 1,004 stitches per square cm in the timber-framed walls, so dont rush this design through a thin tee. Go with mid-weight canvas, denim or a tight woven cotton, hooped firmly with cutaway underneath.

For colour pop pick cream, sand or pale sage backgrounds because the dark timber will read crisply against em. Skip dark navy or black cloth cos the chocolate brown framing fades right out. Drop me a line if your machine cant read the format you grabbed and I will re-export it for ya.
