{"product_id":"chef-gnome-meat-cleavers","title":"Chef Gnome with Meat Cleavers Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003ePut together a chef gnome with meat cleavers and hes a proper kitchen character. Stocky little fella standing front on, tall white chef toque flopping over slightly, long cream beard hanging down past his belly. Pink round nose pokes out and the rest of the face is hidden by all that beard. Both arms raised either side holding big silver meat cleavers with brown wood handles, properly butcher style. Eleven colours total.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBeard is the showpiece, done in a directional fur-style fill with cream, oat and soft grey blended in long sweeping strokes that follow the beard shape, gives it that fluffy texture instead of flat satin. Chef hat uses a clean white satin column with darker grey shadow tucked into the puffy folds at the top so the toque reads as 3D. Cleavers have a polished silver gradient on the blades and dark brown wooden handles with a tiny rivet detail. And his lil round body has a soft grey shadow on one side so he stands out from the background.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI drew this for kitchen decor lovers, butchery shop merch and farmhouse-style apron makers. Its 3.51 by 2.93 inches at the dinkiest end and the largest reaches 7.51 by 6.27, so he fits a tea towel up to a full apron chest. One customer ordered six of em last christmas as a stocking-stuffer batch for her dads butcher shop staff, stitched on charcoal aprons with each persons name underneath. She told me they all wore em on opening day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBest results stitch on a flat woven cotton, washed canvas, twill or denim apron fabric. Cream, charcoal, sage or a dusty navy backdrop lets the white toque and silver cleavers stand out properly. Skip pure white, the toque vanishes into matching cloth. Avoid stretchy jersey aswell, the long beard fill will distort along stretchy direction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDensity sits around 906 spi with 42k stitches on the biggest size, so its a heavy run. Try a medium tearaway stabiliser. Hoop kinda tight and slow the beard section so the directional fur fill stitches clean without tangle-ups. Pop a layer of mesh stab underneath if youre going onto loose linen.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45772288524438,"sku":null,"price":4.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/ChefGnomewithMeatCleaversMachineEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1761630839","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/chef-gnome-meat-cleavers","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
