{"product_id":"cartoon-bee-big-eyes","title":"Cartoon Bee With Big Eyes Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eFriend asked me to make a bee thats more personality than anatomy, and this is what came out. Its basically a round yellow ball with the biggest cartoon eyes youve ever seen on an insect. The face is probably 60 percent eyes. Two large oval shapes with grey-white sclera fills, dark charcoal outlines and small black pupils sitting off-centre so they've got that classic anime side-glance thing going. The body has visible black sketch lines running through the yellow fill instead of solid clean coverage, so it looks like someone drew it with a marker, not something assembled in software.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSix colours: bright yellow for the body, charcoal black for the outlines and body detail strokes, grey-white for the eye base, black for pupils and accent marks, a pale cream or off-white for a small highlight dot in each eye, and a clear teal-blue for the two small wings folded back behind the body. The wings have a thin vein line etched through them so they read as translucent, not filled solid. Tiny spindly legs sit at the bottom, three small lines each side, and two thin antennae curl up from the top of the head with small round ends. Its the antennae that really sells the character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSizes run from 3.5 by 2.79 inches up to 7.5 by 5.97, so the small end sits neatly as a chest badge and the large makes a proper back-of-jacket graphic. Stitch count tops at 28k on the big size, so its not a marathon stitch even at full scale. A customer who makes kids clothes used the small 3.5 on a yellow onesie pocket last April and said it was the most re-ordered design she'd done. Run the eyes first, then the body fill, then the outline passes last or the sketch marks won't layer right.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse a light to medium cutaway stabiliser on cotton knit or jersey. Hoop snug but dont stretch the fabric or the round body shape goes oval. Avoid heavy fleece, the sketch linework can sink into deep pile and lose its hand-drawn quality. Try the 4-inch on a pale yellow or white tee first to get a feel for how the linework looks on your machine before going onto a final garment. Text me the stitch file number and Ill rebuild the registration if the eyes are stitching lopsided.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46369046823062,"sku":null,"price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/CartoonBeeWithBigEyesEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1777800492","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/cartoon-bee-big-eyes","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
