{"product_id":"afro-girl-red-bow","title":"Cute Afro Girl with Red Bow Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eSketched this one up because I kept getting requests for a cute Black girl character that actually looks like someone, not just a generic doll outline. Shes a bust-only design. The big afro puff is the first thing you notice, its digitised with a dense directional fill that gives the hair real volume and depth rather than a flat satin circle. Sitting right on top is a chunky red bow, tied centre, with natural satin folds stitched in. 5 colours total. Hands are tucked under the chin in that classic thinker pose, which gives the whole design this lil attitude that works perfectly on kids gear but also on adult totes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDensity is 788 stitches per square inch, so its substantial work. Theres 22,451 stitches at the biggest 4.07 by 7 inch size and 9,630 at the smallest 2.33 by 4 inch. The hair fill uses a curved tatami layout so the stitches follow the round shape of the puff instead of cutting across it at a hard angle. Skin tones use a single warm brown fill, kept smooth so the face detail stitches on top read cleanly. Id Choose medium cutaway behind here, dont risk a tearaway because the density will pull light fabric if you havent got solid backing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIve had customers order this one 3 or 4 times to do a whole set of matching pouches for a girls birthday party. One person wrote last spring to say she did 8 makeup bags for a teen birthday sleepover and all the girls picked different background colours. That kinda feedback is why I keep digitising these character designs. Stitch her on a canvas zip pouch, put her on a denim shirt back, pop her on a plain cotton tee, or a little girl backpack and shell look right at home on any of them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhite, cream, navy, blush pink, and sage green all work well behind the brown skin tones and the deep hair fill. Avoid dark brown or chocolate backgrounds where the puff fill disappears into the fabric. Use a sharp 75\/11 or 80\/12 needle on denim. Float water-soluble topping on any fabric with a raised texture so the tiny face stitches dont sink.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45855139037334,"sku":null,"price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/CuteAfroGirlwithRedBowMachineEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1763613290","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/afro-girl-red-bow","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
