{"product_id":"abstract-heron","title":"Abstract Heron Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eIts a single colour job. Just black thread the whole way. But the way the heron is drawn makes that work completely. The bird stands in a hunched forward pose with its long bill curving down like its about to strike at the water surface. Body is broken into geometric sections, some filled with dense tatami, some left as open outlined shapes with nothing inside, so you get this almost mosaic quality where solid black patches sit next to white space gaps. The wings fold back tight, angular, not spread. Its got maybe a japanese woodblock quality to it, honestly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFive sizes from 2.76 by 3.51 inches at the smallest running 5,448 stitches up to 5.91 by 7.51 at the largest with 14,551. One colour, zero colour changes, send me message if that confuses the file reader on your machine. The stitch density is 328 which is relatively open, so this stitch out quickly and the thread usage is genuinely low compared to complex fills. Long thin legs at the base use narrow satin columns and those are the sections to watch when hooping, any fabric tension will distort em.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI been selling this one mostly to people doing coastal home decor and art gallery merchandise. One customer ordered it last march for a small gift shop attached to a wildlife art gallery, they wanted something understated that felt like a real art print rather than a novelty tee. The heron format worked perfectly for that because its proportioned more like a vertical art card than a wide badge graphic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStitch on natural linen, cream canvas or white cotton twill for the sharpest contrast. Pale grey works if you want it a little softer. Avoid dark fabrics, the black on black disappears completely and you lose every detail. Tearaway stabiliser is fine on linen and woven cotton. Keep hooping tension even, uneven fabric pull makes the open negative-space sections buckle and pucker.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46323533480086,"sku":null,"price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/AbstractHeronEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1775123298","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/abstract-heron","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
