About this design
Paw print shows a paw seen from below: one large central pad and four oval toe pads, each topped with a small grey claw. The shapes are filled in soft pink, outlined in dark grey and framed by a white border that lifts the design off the fabric. A simple, graphic style measuring 62 × 69 mm in four colours.
It works nicely on a bib, a walking tote bag or a cushion for the dog's basket. On stretchy knit, such as a bodysuit or sweatshirt, use a cut-away stabiliser at the back so the outlines stay crisp. A natural or light grey background shows off the pink and the white border in machine embroidery.
How to stitch it
- Prepare 4 threads: pale pink, dark grey, white, grey. The names give the closest shade; pick the one you like in your thread brand.
- Hoop the fabric in a 10 × 10 cm hoop with a stabiliser: tear-away for woven fabric (cotton, linen, canvas), cut-away for stretchy fabric (T-shirt, sweatshirt, bodysuit).
- Stitch the colours in this order: pale pink → dark grey → white → grey → dark grey → grey → white. The machine stops at each thread change (6 changes, 26 trims).
- Allow about 11 minutes at 700 stitches per minute, 5,322 stitches in all.
- For another size, open the design in the studio rather than enlarging it on the machine: the stitches are recalculated and the density stays right.
