Machine embroidery designs

Signary

Single-colour embroidery files of West African Adinkra symbols. One thread, no colour changes, digitised and tested on fabric before they are sold.

What you get

Four formats per design — VP3, DST, PES and the source SVG.
Hooped at 100 × 170 mm, every design under 91 mm so there is real margin for hooping.
A setup card with measured numbers — stitch count, trims, runtime, stabiliser and needle. Measured from the file itself, never estimated.

Design	Size	Stitches	Runtime
Dwennimmen	75,0 × 90,8 mm	10.133	14,5 min
Sankofa	69,2 × 90,8 mm	6.026	8,6 min
Sankofa (bird)	87,2 × 84,4 mm	7.733	11,0 min
Adinkrahene	86,9 × 86,9 mm	8.354	11,9 min
Gye Nyame	76,8 × 90,8 mm	7.618	10,9 min

Runtime measured at 700 stitches per minute on medium-weight woven fabric. Each design also ships with a satin-outlined version.

Designs are sold in bundles of four — three paid, one free — for about US$ 10. Instant download after payment.

The licence covers finished items you make and sell, up to 200 pieces a year. Redistributing or reselling the files themselves is not permitted.

The shop is being built. The designs above are digitised and being test-sewn one by one on a domestic machine before any of them goes on sale.
