{"product_id":"cow-head","title":"Cow Head Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eHeres the cow head portrait and shes got that real soulful country gaze going on. Front-facing pose. Big curved horns sweeping up wide. Long ears flopped out to either side. The whole head fills the hoop with warm tan and brown fur and a soft sand-coloured nose bridge. Real farmhouse portrait energy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNineteen colours run the fill on this one. Brown, deep chestnut, sand, cream, charcoal grey for the shading round the eyes, soft pink on the muzzle. The horns get their own gradient from cream at the base to dark grey-brown at the tips. Loads of layered shading. The fur sits in directional rows so the coat reads textured, its not flat at all. Density runs moderate at 1268 spi but max stitch count hits about 60,212 on the largest size, thats alot of thread.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMy neighbour bought this for her parents wedding anniversary one october, they ran a small dairy farm in vermont for forty years and she wanted somethin meaningful on a quilt panel. She sent photos after stitching, the way the eyes catch hooping light made it feel like the cow was actually looking back at you. Suprised me how emotional that was.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStitch on cream cotton, oat linen or pale sand canvas for the warmest read. White also works for that crisp gallery look. Skip patterned cloth, the layered shading needs negative space. Steer clear of charcoal or navy grounds because the chestnut and tan fur muddy out completely on dark backgrounds. Best on plain woven fabric, dont try knit on this one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDensity runs serious at 19,884 to 60,212 stitches across 9 sizes so use a heavy cutaway stabiliser on cotton or canvas. Hoop snug, ease back at the densest forehead fur pass to keep tension stable. Avoid stretchy knits, they wont hold the dense shading. The horn highlights and eye details need stable fabric to register, theres no shortcut here. Bug me through email if a colour change misfires on your software.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45747513196694,"sku":null,"price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/CowHeadMachineEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1760851198","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/cow-head","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
