{"product_id":"crazy-chicken","title":"Crazy Chicken Embroidery Design, Farm Animal Machine Embroidery Pattern, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis chicken is not standing still. Wings are out, beak is open, comb leaning, and the whole thing has this mid-bolt energy like it heard a loud noise and just went. Its a genuinely expressive design and the cartoon style means it reads clearly at alot of different sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe colour work is where this gets interesting. my professional tool handled the 19-colour sequence and the directional satin on the comb stitches cleanly without bunching at the tips. Each feather group has its own underlay before the top layer goes down, so the texture actually shows rather than going flat. Butter yellow for the body, scarlet for the comb, amber for the beak and feet. Density sits at 1,648 stitches per cm, so this is a firm stitch-out that needs a stable base. Use cutaway stabiliser on anything stretchy and a medium tearaway on woven fabrics. Sizes run from 3.45 inches wide at the smallest up to 7.38 inches at the largest, with stitch counts between 29,569 and 71,999 across the 9 sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHoop the fabric taut. And on the larger sizes especially, run a topping of water-soluble film over any texture like fleece or pique or youll lose definition in the feather tips. Pop the film away after stitching while the fabric is still in the hoop.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLast spring a customer stitched this at 5-inch size across a white tee back for her kids farm birthday party and texted me the photo. The kids went absolutely wild for it. So its a good pick if youre making something for a child who thinks chickens are funny, which honestly most children do.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdd it to a tea towel, an apron pocket, a tote bag, or the bib of a kids shirt. The 4-inch version centres nicely on a standard front panel without being overwhelming. Run a bobbin colour that matches the backing and trim jump stitches between the colour changes to keep the reverse tidy.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46371292283030,"sku":null,"price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/CrazyChickenEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1777960889","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/crazy-chicken","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
