Foxglove (Digitalis purpurea)

From our Field Guide line: a tall foxglove stalk with a column of bell flowers, drawn like a plate in an old natural-history book and carved in bold, clean lines that stitch well even small. Dusty plum bells with spotted throats, over broad moss-green leaves. The Latin name, Digitalis purpurea, sits under it in spaced serif capitals. The white parts are the fabric itself, so the design stays light on the garment. The 4 × 4 size is the specimen alone, without the name.

• 3 sizes included: 130 × 245 mm (6 × 10 in hoop), 105 × 172 mm (5 × 7 in hoop) and 53 × 95 mm (4 × 4 in hoop). Each size is digitized at its own size, not scaled.
• 3 thread colours, with Madeira Polyneon codes and the colour order on each size's production sheet.
• Light fabric: made for cream, natural, white and pastel sweatshirts, tote bags and tea towels. The white parts are the fabric itself, so skip black and dark colours.

Best on sweatshirts, canvas tote bags and tea towels. The 6 × 10 size fills a tote or a sweatshirt front, the 5 × 7 sits on a chest or a pocket, and the 4 × 4 suits kids' clothes, napkins and small gifts. Use a cut-away stabilizer on knits and a firm tear-away on canvas.
