{"product_id":"classic-christmas-nutcracker-soldiers","title":"Classic Christmas Nutcracker Soldiers Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eTwo nutcracker soldiers standing side by side at attention. Tall black bearskin hats, bright red tunics with gold button rows down the front, white trousers with a clean centre crease, black boots planted flat. Symmetric composition, both figures mirror each other exactly, so the whole thing reads balanced whether you center it on a cushion or stagger it along a stocking border.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSix colours keep it clean. Red tunic, black hat, gold trim, white trousers, black boots and a cream skin tone for the face and hands. No gradients, no blending needed, just solid satin column fills with proper directional stitching so the tunic reads like fabric not a painted patch. Density sits at 939 which is firm but manageable. Biggest size is 38,494 stitches across the 7.5 by 5.5 inch footprint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGonna be honest, I digitised this one specifically for the stocking-cuff crowd after getting dozens of messages in november asking for a paired soldier design. Kinda the obvious gap in the nutcracker category. Email a note if you want a single-soldier version separated, Im happy to do that, but the two-soldier pair is what most people are buying. One school used em on their holiday concert program bags, which I thought was a kinda brilliant use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStitch on felt or velvet for stocking cuffs and use a firm cutaway stabiliser so the bearskin hat satin doesnt pull. Works on denim too if you want a more casual holiday jacket patch look. Pop a layer of topping on any pile fabric. Centre the composition and hoop snug before you run the underlay, the satin columns on the gold buttons need a stable base or theyll lay wonky.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSend me a chat note line if anything in the file looks off and Ill sort it within the hour.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46263367434390,"sku":null,"price":4.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/ClassicChristmasNutcrackerSoldiersEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1771995056","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/classic-christmas-nutcracker-soldiers","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
