The whole botanical section is done in black outline work, fine line satin stitching on every stem and petal. Right up the centre spine theres a solid red figure, kind of a cat tail or bookmark shape, rising up through the flowers. Its that one spot of colour that makes the whole design pop. 2 colour changes total. very satisfying to watch stitch out.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 5 inch version is around 22,000 stitches, and the large 6.68 inch version goes up to about 31,000. Thats alot of fine detail so use a cutaway stabiliser, not tearaway, especially on softer cotton fabric. Ive digitised every floral stem with directional stitching so the petals have actual dimension, not just flat fills. You do want a topping on any textured or loopy fabric because the outline lines are thin and they sink into terry cloth or fleece without it. On smooth denim or canvas it stitches beautifully without topping.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIve sold alot of these to book club members, librarians and teachers who want something for tote bags and canvas pouches. One customer mailed over a photo this month of hers stitched onto a natural linen tote in black thread with the red accent swapped for burgundy, and it looked brilliant. Use a 6x10 or 7x12 hoop for the larger sizes. Add the 3-in piece on the spine of a fabric book cover for a really nice finishing touch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSend me a quick note if you run into any issues and I'll sort it out for you.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46028106367126,"sku":null,"price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/BloomingKnowledgeFloralBookEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1765617246","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/blooming-knowledge-floral-book","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
