{"product_id":"black-cat-christmas","title":"Black Cat Christmas Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe whole thing is a black cat silhouette sitting upright in profile, head tilted up looking annoyed, tangled head to paws in a string of oversized christmas bulb lights. The bulbs are old-school candy-cane shaped, red and bright green and warm yellow scattered across the cat body, looped around the front paws like the cat sat down in the box of lights and gave up. A red Santa hat sits a bit lopsided on the head with a fluffy white pompom hanging off the side. White whisker lines and a tiny white tooth poking out gives the face its grumpy charm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFive colours total. Black does the heaviest lifting at around 16,512 stitches on the medium 4-inch hoop because the silhouette is one big solid fill, then red green yellow handle the bulbs and the hat, and white covers the whiskers, hat trim, and pompom. Density runs at 708 stitches per square inch and youll see 5 colour stops with 4 changes. Five hoop sizes range from 2.38 to 5.09 inches wide, stitch counts climb from 9,997 to 27,059 across the size set.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne customer told me she stitched it for her mum last christmas, her mum has a black cat called Pickle who genuinely does this exact tangle every december, the design landed perfectly on the gift apron. Heres the warning, on the smallest 2.38-inch size the bulb shapes get tight, the small bulbs read as little dots more than candy-cane shapes. Go with the 3-inch or larger if you want bulb detail to read clean.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStitch on cream, white, mint, or pale grey fabric where black body really pops, also the bulb colours stay vibrant against light cottons. Avoid charcoal or navy backgrounds, black cat gets lost on em. Use a firm cutaway behind the design, the solid black fill needs structure or itll pucker. Hoop tight on knit fabric, add topping film for fleece. Message me if any colour stop goes wonky on your machine, ill rework the sequence.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46261227028630,"sku":null,"price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/BlackCatChristmasEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1771824980","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/black-cat-christmas","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
