{"product_id":"elegant-butterfly-2","title":"Elegant Butterfly Embroidery Design V2, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis butterfly. Wings spread wide. Symmetrical. The upper wings curve out with scrolling shapes and a soft purple-to-blue colour running through them. Lower wings taper down into trailing points. Slim black body in the middle, two thin antennae curving up. The decorative outlines along the wing edges give it a refined look. Almost regal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNow on the technical side, nine sizes go from 2.66 by 3.51 inches and going up to 5.68 by 7.51 inches at full size. Stitch counts run 9639 through 24377. Density sits at 571 stitches per square, a tight feel, moderate density, so the gradient colours blend instead of stacking heavy. Four colours and three changes. The colour stops are well-spaced so you can pause and check thread tension between layers. Heres where I usually drop the density slightly. Im responsive about file snags. Glad I did a redraw after the first sample. A design that sticks around in reorders. Im stitching this on the same fabric each time. And where I the drop usually density a notch. And where I the colour drop typically density a notch. Heres where I typically lower the density a notch. Im usually quick about replies if it lifts. Heres my go-to fabric for this one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter thinking about how customers stitch these, I rebuilt the underlay last spring because the wing rim were pulling on satin stitch fabrics. Now it holds clean on stretchy poly knits too. Pick a medium cutaway under the design on tee fabric. Use polyester thread with sheen, not matte, the gradient depends on light catching the satin. the wing edge need a topping on towels or fleece, otherwise the scrollwork detail sinks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne customer who recieved this told me she wanted to know about hooping. Honestly nothing fancy. Hoop tight, mark centre with chalk first, and keep the antennae upright. Text me a note if you need help loading the file into your machine and Ill help fix the file the format.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45843800883350,"sku":null,"price":3.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/ElegantButterflyEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1763272317","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/elegant-butterfly-2","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
