{"product_id":"christmas-gnome-truck","title":"Christmas Gnome Truck Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eMocked this up because people kept asking for a gnome design that wasnt just the gnome standing there doing nothing. The truck felt right. Its a chunky vintage flatbed, the kind with round fenders and a flat hood, painted in that matte brick red. The gnome is tucked behind the wheel, hat tilted, and his grey beard is so long it sort of drapes down over the door like a scarf. Behind him in the truck bed sits a full forest-green Christmas tree, branches wide, no decorations, just the tree shape doing all the work. Big composition, lots of going on.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI ran it through professional embroidery software for digitising and it came out at 12 colours with 5 sizes running from 3.24 inches wide up to 6.94 inches. Stitch counts climb from 28,520 at the small end to 68,016 at full size, so this is a dense piece. And honestly the density is what makes it look so good once its stitched. The beard threads use a directional satin fill that reads genuinely fluffy. Use heavy cutaway stabiliser for this one, not tearaway, the stitch density pulls fabric around abit if you dont back it properly. Hoop tight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA customer grabbed the 4-inch version for a set of matching red aprons and sent me photos last December. Looks unreal on that dark red ground, the gnome face pops because the ivory thread stays clean against it. Pair it with a natural linen pocket square if you want something a lil more subtle. Skip white or cream base fabrics if youre worried about the red truck bleeding at the edges, dark or mid-tone works best.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStitch it on kitchen aprons for the neighbour who has Christmas decorations up before Halloween. Pop it on canvas tote bags as a seasonal carry. Run it on fleece zip hoodies for the kids, the gnome reads well even at the smaller sizes because the beard shape is so distinctive. Add it to quilting squares, flannel throw pillow covers, or a jute wreath sack. Best on structured wovens where the underlay can do its job properly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHoller if something comes up with the file and Ill get it sorted.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46232033394838,"sku":null,"price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/ChristmasGnomeTruckEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1770703409","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/christmas-gnome-truck","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
