{"product_id":"cat-eye-illusion","title":"Cat Eye Illusion Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe first thing you see is an eye, drawn in that heavy graphic liner style with the lashes swept dramatically to the right. Then you realise the whole upper lash line has become a cat crouching sideways, its tail curling up and to the left where the eyeliner flick ends. And right in the inner corner a tiny tabby face peers out through the lashes like its been there the whole time. Its that kind of double-take design where people stare at it for a few seconds before they get it, and then they want to know where you found it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEight colours, which lets the iris do proper work. The eyeball has a pale yellow outer ring, a sharper green inner zone and the vertical slit pupil in dark grey, so it reads simultaneously as a human iris and a cat eye at the same time. Same shared visual trick the imagery is built on, just reinforced in thread. Lower lash area uses a soft minty teal as a shadow fill, which keeps the eye from looking flat. The tiny cat in the corner has its own whisker lines stitched in fine white running stitch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFive sizes from 3.01 by 3.51 inches up to 6.43 by 7.51. Go for the large size on a tee chest, the detail in the tabby face and the iris layers really needs space to breathe. Smallest version works on a hat panel or a bag zip pocket where the outline of the eye reads clearly even if the finer details shrink a little. I get orders for this one regularly from people who do artsy cat-themed apparel, sold a batch just last month to someone doing a cat cafe staff merch run.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStabilise with medium cutaway and float a water-soluble topping to stop the fine black sketch lines sinking into jersey knit. Use the topping on denim too, the lash strokes are thin and the topping keeps them crisp. Skip stretchy fabrics for anything smaller than 4 inches wide, the proportions compress in ways that lose the illusion effect. Message if the smallest size isnt holding the eye detail well and I can advise on thread weight.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46328267079830,"sku":null,"price":4.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/CatEyeIllusionEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1775471718","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/cat-eye-illusion","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
