I saw a comic of Celestia and Luna that was just too cute for words a while ago and I really wanted to do a design of Celestia the Alfalfa Monster. Sadly, the resolution was just too low, and my machine was just too small to make a design. The artist made a bigger image of that panel, and I had a new hoop overnighted, so now I can do that design. The hoop is 4 by 6 3/4", but my machine can stil only do 4" by 4". The larger hoop makes it so you can do 2 designs with a minimal seam.
I had a bear of a time with the text, and tried a bunch of different settings. Sadly, nothing looks good, while still fitting in the hoop with the design itself. That's why the text is crazy hard to read.
There are 3 embroidery files. One is the complete design for a hoop that is 4" by 6 3/4" or larger. The other 2 designs are the split of Celestia and Luna for the Brother 4" by 6 3/4" hoop. You can download the files here.

Raise the Sun and Moon Embroidery
I mentioned earlier that I got the idea to do MLP embroidery designs during the Cutie Mark Chronicles episode when Princess Celestia raised the Sun. The outline of Celestia over the sun in 3 colors looked awesome, but I wasn't able to do it until now.
There are 2 different designs available. The first, non-overlapped one, does not have much overlap in the thread colors. This will work fine on 99% of fabric, and save some thread. I also made an overlapped design, where the white for the sun is a complete circle without a cutout under Celestia's tail or body. I think it looks slightly better overlapped when on a low thread count fabric such as a bar towel. Here's a pic of the the non-overlapped one during a test run on a bar towel. You can see the gap where Celestia will end up going in on the next thread color.
We can't just stop there with Trollestia. I haven't done a Luna design yet, and this seemed like the perfect time for it. So here's a design of Luna raising the Moon in the same style based upon this drawling. Both are for a 100 by 100mm hoop.
The Luna embroidery design is here. Here's both on a pair of bar towels. Awesome overload.
Also, thanks for linking to this blog Equestria Daily. Hopefully lots of ponys will be able to use the designs I put up here to put MLP on everything in their house. I can probably make a few for people who ask, but I can't do a ton. If you want something embroidered with a design I have up here, just let me know and I'll help.
