{"product_id":"chef-hat-kitchen-tools-split","title":"Chef Hat Kitchen Tools Split Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eMocked up this split frame design for the cooking and kitchen crowd and its a clean personalisation piece. Top half has the chef hat on the left, that classic tall double-puff shape with the knot tie at the base and a few horizontal fold lines on the body. Right of the hat, 5 kitchen tools fan out upward: a spatula, a cleaver, a rolling pin, a whisk and what looks like tongs or a ladle. All drawn as outlines with just enough inner line detail to read well at small sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwo parallel horizontal lines run across the width at the midpoint, creating the gap where a name or word goes. Thats what makes it a split frame, the design literally parts in the middle to leave space for embroidered text you add seperately in your software. Below the gap, centred at the bottom, sits a frying pan in outline plus a small leaf sprig to soften the lower frame. Its one colour and under 7,300 stitches at the biggest size, so its quick to run even on a batch job.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e5 sizes from 2.69 by 3.5 inches up to 5.77 by 7.5. Stitch count is light, max around 7,200, so it stitches fast on all sizes. Density is only 168 stitches per square inch, deliberately low for a frame design so the lettering in the gap doesnt look heavier than the surrounding graphic. A customer who personalises aprons for a local restaurant had the medium running at about 4 minutes per hoop last spring. She did 12 of em in an afternoon without any issues.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eApron fabric, heavy cotton twill, canvas and denim all work well. Its single-colour so pick any thread that matches your brand or the recipients kitchen scheme. Pair with a simple serif or script font for the name panel for best visual balance. Skip thin fabrics like organza, the outline stitching needs a solid base to sit flat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdd a medium tearaway stabiliser on stiff apron fabric. Keep the personalised name in roughly the same weight as the tool outlines so nothing looks bolted on. Try a test on scrap fabric first with your chosen font to check spacing in the gap before committing to the final piece.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46063674556566,"sku":null,"price":1.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/ChefHatKitchenToolsSplitEmbroideryDesign.jpg?v=1767417101","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/chef-hat-kitchen-tools-split","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
