Pop the 7.5 inch version onto a large throw pillow or a framed linen hoop display. Density sits at 448 so the fill stays flat without stiffening the fabric, which matters when you want a soft drape rather than a stiff panel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHoop the shirt fabric taut with a cutaway backing and a topping layer of water-soluble stabiliser over the nap if you're working on fleece or terry. Skip the iron-on backing on anything with stretch in the weave or the directionality of the fill rows will pull the fabric sideways. Center the design below the neckline for shirt-front placement, or shift it left-chest for a more understated look on a quilted panel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePing me if the density fights your fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46429056762006,"sku":null,"price":3.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/MemorialShirtKeepsakeEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1782034069"},{"product_id":"butterflies-appear-when-angels-are","title":"Butterflies Appear When Angels Are Near Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eAt 42,346 stitches on the full 7.5 inch, this one sits in complex territory and earns it. The two monarch butterflies alone carry most of that load as a result of the directional satin fill on the wings, each feather-like cell stitched separately to get that layered orange and yellow effect. Black outlines crisp everything up, and the tiny white spots on the upper wings are their own little satin patches. Its a lot of elements working together but the underlay planning keeps it flat and clean on the fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe quote is split across three different type treatments: \"Butterflies\" floats up top in a flowing burgundy cursive, the middle line hits in sky blue block caps, and the final line lands on a green ribbon banner with tatami fill inside. Add the berry branch at the bottom right and the scattered peach and green dot accents and you've got atleast six distinct colour sections across the whole piece. Dense but worth it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA mum who lost her own mother last winter ordered the 5 inch on a cream linen throw pillow and said it was exactly what she needed to have something tangible to hold. A canvas tote handles the 7 inch fine, and the banner lettering stays legible even from a few feet away which matters when people are carrying it around. Avoid hooping stretchy jersey for this one, the density will pull. Cut a proper cutaway stabiliser and use a topping on any terry or fleece surface so the lettering doesnt sink in.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePair it with threads matching the burgundy and sky blue from the preview and youll stay close to the colour chart. Pick a medium weight cotton twill or tightly woven canvas for first attempts. Stitch the butterflies last if your machine lets you reorder colour stops, it gives you the cleanest bobbin tension on those satin wings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSend me a note if a colour sequence looks off.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46432104611990,"sku":null,"price":4.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/ButterfliesAppearWhenAngelsAreNearEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1782364040"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/collections\/Remembrance_Embroidery_Designs.png?v=1759918858","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/collections\/remembrance.oembed","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
