{"product_id":"autumn-leaves-acorn-border","title":"Autumn Leaves and Acorn Border Embroidery Design, Fall Machine Embroidery, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eBorder designs are a bit tricky to digitise well and this one took me kinda longer than I expected, the textured nut tops in particular, because they need that hatched fill to read as acorn caps and not just flat blobs. Nine thousand six hundred and eighty stitches in a 3.5 by 1.69 inch strip, density 254, which is the highest-density design Ive released in this fall series. actually worth it though, because those little tops come out with actual visible texture at this count.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI digitised it in digitising tools with each leaf shape in a directional satin fill that points from stem to tip, gives the leaves a natural-looking direction, not the generic grid fill you see on lower-effort designs. Four colours: burnt orange, deep brown, golden yellow, and cream-tan. The sequence builds leaf-by-leaf across the border so colour transitions are clean at each element, not splitting mid-leaf.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA customer ordered this last month for a set of autumn napkins she was making as gift sets, she did four napkins with the border running along one short edge of each, and the result looked genuinely professional. Use a 75\/11 needle and run at slower-than-usual speed for the first colour pass. Dont skip the cutaway stabiliser, at density 254 tearaway will pull on anything with give in the weave. Stitch a test strip on scrap fabric first if youre doing something special like linen napkins since the density is unforgiving on loosely woven textiles. Skip any fabric with stretch, the border will ripple.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStitch on cream, natural, or white cotton for the full four-colour palette to show clearly, the golden yellow disappears on light tan but glows on white. Im happy to swap the colour sequence file if you want the orange to read as the dominant tone.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46412794495126,"sku":null,"price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/AutumnLeavesandAcornBorderEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1780554019","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/autumn-leaves-acorn-border","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
