{"product_id":"baby-duck-sketch","title":"Baby Duck Sketch Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis lil duck uses a sketch technique where the feathers build up from hundreds of overlapping directional lines rather than solid filled satin areas. The head has this great messy tuft sticking out every which way, and fine layered strokes cover the body giving it real texture and depth. Its only 2 colours, white and a warm grey, but theres alot going on visually because of how the lines layer up. Looks like someone drew it with a fine ink pen directly onto the fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI digitised this through my standard software, and the underlay structure is what makes it work. With a sketch design at this density, you need the underlay laid down properly so the top stitching has something to grip without pulling the fabric sideways. The stitch count is genuinely high for a 2-colour design, ranging from 35,161 stitches at 3.51 inches up to 81,254 stitches at the 7.51-inch size. Thats because the sketch lines run in multiple passes, and the machine needs enough coverage to build that pencil-drawing look. Use a heavy cutaway stabiliser and dont skip the bobbin tension check before you run the full file.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA bunch of customers have ordered this one specifically for baby onesies and nursery items. Last spring a customer wrote me saying she stitched the 4 inch face on a butter-yellow onesie for a hospital gift bag and it was suprisingly the most popular one in the set. White thread on white fabric is my favourite way to stitch it honestly. Pair with a pastel-blue or sage fabric and the grey sketch lines pop nicely against it. Best results on tight-woven cotton or firm jersey with cutaway backing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46337673887894,"sku":null,"price":4.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/BabyDuckSketchEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1775982989","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/baby-duck-sketch","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
