About the design
This pattern leans into geometric embroidery design without feeling rigid. The linework is clear, and your stitch choices can change the whole vibe of the finished hoop.
If you like neat outlines and satisfying fill areas, you’ll enjoy how the motif builds from simple shapes into a complete scene.
Color experiment tip: change just one accent shade first—small tweaks can feel surprisingly fresh.

A clean transfer makes stitching calmer. Here’s one way to do it:

- Transfer the lines to fabric using your preferred method
- Hoop the fabric with even tension
