Machine time
Multi-needle machine: about 8–11 min
A range, not a promise: stitches ÷ effective speed, plus one pause per colour change. Adjust it to your machine.
Adjust speed and pauses
Multi-needle machine: Effective speed (spm) 700–950 · Pause per colour change (s) 3
Hooping, stabilizer and threading are not included (typically 5–15 min). Nominal speeds from manufacturer specifications (e.g. Janome MC500E 400–860 spm). Effective speed is lower.
Before you start & guidance for your fabric
- Load the file for this size and check the machine reads the right format.
- Choose a hoop the design fits in with margin; do not scale the design to force it.
- Prepare the threads in the order below; some colours come back later in the sequence.
- Hoop fabric and stabilizer together, flat and without stretching.
- Use a fresh embroidery needle; stitch a test on a scrap of the same fabric if in doubt.
Guidance for your fabric
The heavier the fabric and the denser the design, the heavier the stabilizer. Cut-away is the safer choice for knits and high stitch counts; tear-away suits stable wovens.
Needle: an embroidery needle (75/11 or 90/14) with rayon or polyester embroidery thread; a metallic needle for metallic threads. Size depends on thread and fabric, not on the stitch count.
General guidance from stabilizer and needle manufacturers' guides (OESD, Sulky, Madeira, SCHMETZ). It does not replace a test on your own fabric. No tension values are given: they depend on your machine.

About this design
Flamingo 2 Embroidery Design with fur and shading built up in layers, so it reads as volume without overloading the stitch count.
Sizes and stitch counts
Comes in 3 sizes: 53 × 98 mm (7,501 stitches), 69 × 127 mm (9,770) and 97 × 178 mm (14,829). The smallest fits a 10 × 10 cm hoop.
Formats and machines
The download includes 8 formats, among them PES, DST, JEF, EXP, HUS, VP3, so it runs on Brother, Janome, Husqvarna, Bernina and Pfaff with no conversion.
Before you stitch
Layered shading looks best with a slightly loosened top tension, so the underlying colours stay visible.
