This free Cowboy Leather Hibiscus Leaves Machine Embroidery design download is an example of the group of my Hibiscus Cowboy Leather Embroidery designs. I think that these single color designs are very effective stitched out in almost the same color as your chosen fabric. The results look as though the design was embossed. Lovely. However, this subtle effect is almost impossible to photograph. These designs are a great choice for embellishing bags. All of these designs have been evaluated and perfected by stitching them onto quilt weight cotton batik as shown to the left.
PLEASE NOTE! ALL OF THE FREE DESIGNS COME WITH BASTING RECTANGLES. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, please read the free tutorial here.
Please remember to start stitching with the second thread color. I
realize this sounds a little crazy, but different embroidery machines
behave differently so in order to be sure that the basting rectangle
will work properly on all home embroidery machines I have to digitize a
starting color that is not used. It's complicated. This download includes the following file formats: HUS, DST, EMD, JEF, PEC, PES, VIP, XXX. This design is in one color, has 11,013 stitches, and measures 4.97"X4.97" (including the basting rectangle). This design is available for sale in two sizes here.
I
bundle my embroidery designs with pdf files of instructions and paper
templates for printing. All of the different embroidery file formats
are included in the download (just delete the ones you don't want to
keep - right click on the ones you don't want, then click "delete").
The
files available here have been
compressed into .ZIP format. You can UnZIP them using WinZip or WinRAR, or WinXP's 'Extract To' feature.
