Flowers & wildlife
The flowers and wildlife below are published machine embroidery designs, shared with permission under an open license. Previews are drawn from their stitches. They are not photos of sewn results.
Five PES designs: a peacock, a leopard, a flower bouquet, a hibiscus and a honeybee. Explore layered fills, fine details and pale wings, then make a selection sheet.

The five published designs above use Thread lighting: a digital preview of stitch direction and shading, not a sewn result. Opening this collection uses the same setting. You can turn it off to compare the plain colors.
