You Are My Sunshine Embroidery Design, Instant Download

Heres the sunshine quote and the lettering does most of the talking. Long flowing script with that hand-lettered sway, you can almost hear the lullaby in your head when ya read it. Big swooping descender on the y at the end. Loop on the e at sunshine wraps around a tiny sun with little ray spokes coming off it. The whole layout sits in a soft slanted column not quite straight, not quite angled.

Two colours doing all the work. Warm mustard yellow carries the script weight, deep enough to read on cream nursery fabric but not so dark it loses that vintage lullaby softness. A black outline sun lives inside the e loop. Honestly its kinda just the sweetest little touch when you spot it. Light underlay keeps the satin smooth so the curves dont jump.

I drew this for nursery decor mostly, baby shower gifts, mom-and-baby keepsake hoops. People have been ordering it nonstop for valentines and mothers day too, alot of grandma gifts in the spring run. One customer ordered the 7-inch size last easter for a swaddle blanket monogram, she sent photos back. The cream muslin behind warm mustard letters had that proper lullaby look.

Stitch on plain pale fabric for clean script reading. Pop on cream linen, ivory cotton, soft blush, sage muslin or oat-coloured fleece. The mustard yellow sings on any of those. Skip yellow or mustard fabric here aswell, the lettering just disappears into the ground. Avoid busy patterned cloth too because the script needs negative space to flow.

Stitch counts run light at 18k on the largest size, only 7.8k on the smallest. Two colour changes total, fast project. Lay light tearaway woven cotton, medium cutaway if youre putting on baby tee knit. Pop a polymesh topping on fleece or minky baby blankets so the satin script columns dont sink in. Best results, slow stitching speed at the loops because they curve tight. Drop a help-form screenshot if your hoop loses tension halfway.
