{"product_id":"elegant-ballerina","title":"Elegant Ballerina Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eElegant ballerina, body in solid black, right up on pointe with the left leg extended behind and one arm reaching straight up. And then the tutu hits you. Its not a solid shape, its a spray of curved ribbon lines looping out in every direction, teal, mint, dusty purple, pale pink, like the skirt is mid-spin and still catching air. No heavy fill on the dress at all, just those loose arcing strokes radiating outward.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe curved arcs vary in weight so the longer outer ones taper to a thread and the shorter inner strands have a bit more body, which gives the whole skirt a sense of depth without needing extra colours. Four colours total but they layer over that black body so the eye reads more than that. Density runs at 356 stitches per square inch, which is actually lighter than it looks, the design stitches out faster than the detail level suggests.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNine sizes run from 2.69 by 3.5 inches up to 5.77 by 7.5 so youve got everything from a small dance bag patch all the way up to a centred tote front. At the smaller end the arcs stay clean because the stitch paths are generous enough to hold definition. Biggest size tops out at just over 15k stitches, well within a standard single hooping on a mid-range machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWorks best on dark or neutral fabric where the black body reads properly. Use black jersey or charcoal fleece and the coloured arcs pop without competition. Pale backgrounds work too if youre after a softer, gallery-poster mood. Skip rough canvas or heavy denim, the tapered strokes lose definition on textured weaves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse a tear-away on stable knits, cutaway on anything stretchy. A light topping on smooth satin stops the ribbon stitches from sinking into the weave. I get a lot of orders from dance parents for end-of-year recital gifts, one mum last spring put the 3.5-in feature on a set of organza hair pouches and the kids absolutely loved them. Hit the shop inbox if a colour run drops out mid-design and Ill sort it for you.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46352301883542,"sku":null,"price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/ElegantBallerinaEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1776656212","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/elegant-ballerina","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
