Was asked to embroider an elephant on a (large) towel. I had one I digitised over a decade ago with now outdated Husqvarna software, I think it was system5. I wanted to make a slight alteration but instead re-digitised it.
It fun to see what the effect can be of digitising a filling at different angles: I took the first picture standing at the long side of the table, left the towel where it was and moved to the sort side. And, hey presto, different shade for the head (picture #2). Standing at the other short side the effect was opposite: the head seemed to be dark, the body light.

That's a very cute design! Yes, the light does change the look of things. I have a very large wall in my house's entrance. the paint looks white, pink, or tan depending on how the light hits it! Same for the direction of the thread too I guess.

Thank you. Now it was flat on the table but when you wrap the towel around you it comes to life even more.

What a sweet Elephant!!! I see the difference in the lighting. I am forever getting a shadow of the camera (or phone) I am using while taking a picture of a project! Bet Arian loves the towel!!

It's not the shadow of my camera in this case. It is the result of the different angles of the stitches. I did that on purpose, not only because it makes a difference in push and pull, but also because I like the different tones the light creates.
playing with color is fun:):)

Love the look of how the colours seem to change with the light. Lovely Elephant as well. I am sure the new Mum will love it.
