{"product_id":"365-days-black-history","title":"365 Days Black History Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe 365 sits front and centre in big round white numerals, and behind it three loose diagonal brushstrokes cut across the composition in crimson, teal green and warm gold. The word Days in flowing black script overlaps the number from the right side, kinda just landing on top casually. Then BLACK HISTORY comes in below in wide bold white block caps on the dark teal and gold fills. Its layered and busy in a good way, like a community mural that someone actually painted on a wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI get messages from year-round activists and community organisers who specifically want something that pushes back on black history being a february event only. Thats the whole point of this design. One organiser I know in manchester, she had it stitched on canvas totes she sold at a local black-owned business fair in september. Not a flag in sight, just the message on a bag people actually carry around.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e5 colours to work through: crimson first, then that teal green, then warm gold, then white for the main numerals and text, then black for the script. Total colour changes: 4. That white layer is the biggest single pass at the largest size, about 10,652 stitches, so make sure youve got enough white thread loaded before you start. Use cutaway stabiliser here because the sections overlap at the edges and you want the whole thing held firm during the white pass on top. Hoop tight and check tension before running the white layer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e5 sizes from 3.27 x 3.50 inches up to 7.01 x 7.47 inches. Stitch counts between nine thousand and 27,069. the digitising software digitised the brush stroke fills with proper tatami patterning so they dont look flat, the directional variation in the fills gives it texture. Stitch on white, cream or light grey fabric so those crimson strokes show proper contrast. Skip dark fabric, the white fill wont show up properly and youll lose the whole composition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEmail me if the file gives you trouble at any stage and Ill get you a replacement sorted fast.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46276865196182,"sku":null,"price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/365DaysBlackHistoryEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1772702952","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/365-days-black-history","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
