These designs have been digitized with the Artista Designer software, but they aren't available in
ART format. Artista 180 and Artista 170 owners can buy PES format if they want to, since the designs
that gave problems on the Artista 200, stitched perfectly on these two machines.

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.

and the textures justice.

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.

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
