{"product_id":"detailed-honey-bee-2","title":"Detailed Honey Bee Embroidery Design, Top View Hexagon Flower Pattern","description":"\u003cp\u003eHoney bee from directly above with wings spread flat to the sides, sitting dead centre over a cluster of six interlocking hexagonal honeycomb cells. And the comb cluster forms a kind of flower shape with the hexagons radiating out like petals. Wings have light open fill so they read translucent, body has tight directional satin so the stripes look like actual bee fur, not a flat patch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThree threads only, warm honey orange for the hexagon cell outlines and a touch of body colour, soft cream white for the wing fills, and plain black for everything else, bee body, stripes, legs, antennae. Cells stay empty in the middle so the comb reads as outlined petals, not solid blocks. Keeps the stitch budget reasonable for the size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStitch count runs 10,566 at the smallest 3.5x3.4 inches up to 24,942 at the largest 7.5x7.28 inches. So density is moderate at 457 per square inch, its manageable on home machines but worth slowing down a touch on the dense bee section. Theres five sizes covering chest pocket through to tote face placement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI get steady orders from beekeepers, herbalists and farmers market vendors. One customer ordered ten of these last summer for her countryside soap shop tote bags, she stitched them in matching orange thread on cream canvas. Beautiful set, she sent pics afterwards and theyre stunning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBest fabric is woven cotton, linen, light canvas, anything cream, natural sand, oatmeal, soft sage. Avoid orange or yellow fabric since the comb will dissapear. Back with cutaway stabiliser for the dense central section, tearaway is fine on the hexagon edges. Use orange 40wt rayon for the comb sheen, polyester black for durability through wash cycles, it wont fray as quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46328082694294,"sku":null,"price":3.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/DetailedHoneyBeeMachineEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1775456705","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/detailed-honey-bee-2","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
