Vintage Microphone Embroidery Design, Music Machine Embroidery Pattern, Instant Download

The vintage microphone body is black with heavy hatching fill, like an old woodcut or screen print inked onto fabric. Outer frame hardware reads in warm gold, and behind the mic is an explosive burst with jagged spikes firing out in every direction. Half the burst runs in that dark inky tone, the other half is a punchy aqua teal. Together theyre what makes the whole thing feel like a proper old-school rock gig poster.

Six thread colors total. Aqua, two shades of gold-amber, white, black and a near-white for the grille mesh detail. Five sizes run from 3.5 inches to 7.5 max tall. Honestly its more dramatic at the bigger sizes, so Id go for at least 5 inches if you can. Stitch counts run from 14,001 up to nearly 38,000 at full size. Five color changes across the whole design and theyre all clean swaps, no blending required.

Run this on a firm cutaway stabiliser and hoop tight. The satin sections on the mic stand are narrow directional fills and theyll pucker if the fabrics not held well. Stitch the aqua burst first, swap your thread, work through the gold hardware sections, then finish with the body detailing. People have been grabbing this one as a gift for musicians pretty regulalry since last autumn. One customer ordered it three times in a row for different band members. Pop it on dark canvas or a black tote and the gold and aqua really sing against that background. Any questions about the files just drop me a message and Ill get back to you.
