So I wrapped it up properly, and its been one of the steadier sellers in the kids range since. 3 colours in the tutu alone, nine sizes total from 3.5 climbing to 7.5 inches, and the stitch count tops out at 22,584 on the largest, which sounds like alot for a kids design but the density is actually quite low at 62, so it sits nicely on lighter fabrics without weighing the garment down.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse a soft woven-in tearaway stabiliser under jersey knits for the smaller sizes, and switch to a cutaway on anything that gets washed a bunch like a kids backpack or a dance bag lining. The tutu layers use directional satin at different angles so you get a lil bit of visual depth even from flat stitching. Pop a water-soluble topping over the face area if youre stitching on a textured fleece, keeps the tiny dot eyes from sinking into the pile. And use a fine 60-weight bobbin thread to keep the back clean.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTen colour changes total so its a bit of a ya gotta be organised kind of stitch. Lay out your colour sequence before you hoop: blush tutu base, lavender bodice, hair brown, flesh face, then the ribbon and detailing colours last. Going out of order messes up the underlay registration and you get colour bleed at the tutu edge. I hear from buyers about this colour sequence thing pretty regularly and every time its the same, they swapped a colour early and the satin overlaps went wonky.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe four-inch size is the sweet spot for left-chest on a little girls t-shirt or cardigan, and it lands really nicely on onesies too at that size with a lightweight cutaway. Ping me if you want the colour palette adjusted for a specific recital costume colour, Ill sort that for ya. Drop me a line if the download hits any snags and Ill fix it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46337073807510,"sku":null,"price":4.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/CuteBallerinaGirlMachineEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1775890419","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/ballerina-girl-2","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
