Modern Split-Tone Botanical Leaf Arrangement | Hand Embroidery Pattern PDF

Modern Split-Tone Botanical Leaf Arrangement — Hand Embroidery Pattern

From PDF to fabric

To keep the lines sharp, take a minute for setup:

1. Print at 100% (no scaling) and choose your hoop size
2. Transfer the lines to fabric using your preferred method
3. Hoop the fabric with even tension
4. Stitch outlines first, then fills/textures, then tiny details
5. Finish the back neatly and display in the hoop or frame

Design notes

This pattern leans into floral needlework without feeling rigid. The linework is clear, and your stitch choices can change the whole vibe of the finished hoop.

It’s the kind of design you can stitch over a few evenings and keep on display year-round.

If you prefer a crisp look, keep stitch length consistent and avoid overcrowding details.

Set your hoop down, pick a few strands of floss, and let the picture build. Modern Split-Tone Botanical Leaf Arrangement translates into a botanical piece of embroidery hoop art.
