{"product_id":"bumblebee-embroidery","title":"Cute Bumblebee Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eIts a bumblebee but not a cute lil cartoon version. This one is detailed, almost scientific looking but with a graffiti edge because of the scatter dots and streaks flying out around it. Big compound eyes, oversized and slightly unnerving in the best way. The yellow and black stripes on the abdomen use directional stitching so they actually follow the curve of the body instead of sitting flat. The wings are semi-transparent with a soft lavender grey shading that stops em looking like two white blobs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAround the outside black and yellow splash dots fly outward like the bee just landed hard and kicked up colour. And that little bit of warm tan and olive brown on the thorax breaks the yellow-black pattern so it reads less like a cartoon and more like an actual specimen illustration. Eight colours in total, 5 sizes from 3.5 inches up to 7.51 inch at the largest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI get alot of orders for this one from beekeepers and garden centre owners, mostly for tote bags and aprons. One customer last spring asked for the 7-inch version for a beekeeper supply shop, stitched onto black canvas totes, and the density on the body sections came out realy crisp. At 47k stitches on the big size its one of my denser designs but my usual software pulled clean satin columns all the way through.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStitch on black, charcoal or deep navy fabric and the yellow just explodes off the background. Pop the smaller petite 3.5 on a chest pocket or a tote handle panel. Use a firm cutaway stabiliser underneath, the ink-scatter sections carry short dense fill stitches and they can pull linen or jersey if you under-stabilise. Avoid topping on the wings because it muddies the semi-transparent lavender shading.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBest results on woven cotton or canvas. Slow the machine slightly on the compound eye sections, theres alot of tight satin work packed in there and rushing it causes thread breaks. Holler at me if the file doesnt open right in your software and ill get it sorted straight away.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46326223503510,"sku":null,"price":4.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/CuteBumblebeeEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1775273624","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/bumblebee-embroidery","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
