Ocean Collections
Let your creative juices flow and create your own large
scenes by combining several designs to form a larger design or picture.
|
These designs were designed especially for interior decorating and linens. Someone who likes and collect
shells too, can take this ocean theme right through the house. They are ideal for beach bags, linens
in bedrooms, lamp shades, living areas, bathrooms and even for placemats and table linens. I like these
designs in tone on tone and in white, creams and beiges. The textures in these designs are something
completely different and make these designs really exceptional. Most of the designs are not meant to
be embroidered as a single design and has to be combined, to form a little scene, or as large as you
want to make such a project. These designs are also ideal to be put into pictures frames.
It may
look as if the same design is repeated a number of times, but each seastar, seaweed or coral, has a different
texture or size. I got so excited and I ended up with such a lot of designs, I had to split the designs
into several collections.

PR-600 Ocean Scenes $80 US for the Brother PR-600 and Babylock EMP-6 10 designs
|
|
Each design is like a small set of 5x7 and 4x4 inch designs. They were put together with designs from
the 4x4 inch, as well as the 5x7 inch Ocean collections. Anyone who buys these large designs for the
PR600 or Babylock EMP-6 machines, will be able to create their own scenes, as these designs haven't been
locked for editing. All the designs that appear in one of these large designs, will be like single designs
and my PES format customers will be able to create new scenes, by copying and pasting these designs to
another design page and to create more large designs. Just don't try and sell these new creations, as
the original designs are still mine<gg> Please note, these designs were digitized in the Artista
Designer software, so don't change the sizes in Palette or PE-Design at all.

Projects made with these designs
|
I cannot prescribe to my customers what to do, but my honest opinion is that these designs won't work
in bright colors or in different bright colors. If you want to use different colors, use pastel shades
and shades that are just darker or lighter than your background fabric. Totally contrasting colors, like
blue on a white background, also look nice.

Joan Wium created these little scenes when she tested these designs for me. The picture frames with
shells on them, absolutely compliment the designs. Glue real shells onto plain picture frames to get
the same stunning effect if you cannot get frames like these. Please e-mail Joan.

Erica Hobbs, who tests for me on a Pfaff machine, created this little scene when she tested one of
the 4x4 inch sets for me. Please e-mail Erica.

Monica Powell also made this lovely pillow and towel when she tested these designs. Monica gave us
a wonderful idea to make these designs work on towels too, as the nature of the stitches make that all
the designs won't be suitable to embroider on towels. Please e-mail Monica

I used a design from the 5x7 Ocean Scenes on this tote bag. The design on the placemat is from
the PR-600 Ocean Scenes. The different textures and densities of the designs make it look as if different
shades were used, but the whole design was embroidered in one color.

Some of the shells, like the one on the left can be embroidered with variegated threads too. Please
don't embroider the small stones with plain step - or fill stitches with variegated threads, as it will
give stripes, which won't look natural at all.
The thread color that Joan used, was Marathon Rayon
#5502. Another natural variegated thread in beige and Golden Brown, #5501 will also look very good. Unfortunately
these varigated threads are not on my color chart for Polyester threads and you will have to check the
Marathon web site. Marathon Varigate
