This folder contains various subfolders, each organizing a different type of succulent design. The designs within each subfolder are sorted by the size of the largest element, which indicates the overall size of the designs grouped there. All designs are formatted to fit within a 4x4 hoop, allowing you to stitch each element individually.

Instructions for Use:

This folder contains individually separated files, allowing for flexible use. You can stitch each element on its own or select only certain designs for your project.

Example:

  • Select a Design: Pick a design based on the largest element’s size to ensure proper fit.
  • Prepare for Stitching: Load the designs set for a 4x4 hoop and choose your thread colors.

This folder includes files similar to those in the other folders but organized differently. Each file contains a complete single flower design with all four layers combined, formatted for embroidery hoops up to 20x20 cm in size.
