{"product_id":"festive-christmas-gnome","title":"Festive Christmas Gnome Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eSo this Christmas gnome was a fun winter character to digitise. The gnome is round and chubby, the pink slouchy hat flops to one side, and reindeer antlers stick out from under the brim with tiny bulb lights tangled through em. Shaggy white beard covers basically the whole face except for a tiny black nose. Holiday festive without being preachy about it, which is the look I was after for a holiday gnome design.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStitch range runs from 17,959 at the 3.51-inch size up to 48,202 at the largest 7.51-inch. Eight colours, eight thread changes, including the dark green mittens, the deep red bulbs, the brown antler shafts, and a punch of yellow on alternating bulb glass. I digitised it in Wilcom EmbroideryStudio and built the shaggy beard out of overlapping directional satin layers so the fringe edge actually breaks up instead of looking like one solid blob. Use medium cutaway behind anything with give, and add a layer of water-soluble topping if youre hooped on terry or fleece, the satin needs a firm surface or its gonna sink.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDensity sits around 989 which is on the heavier side for a character piece, so dont try it on thin cotton without proper backing. But a structured tote, a sweatshirt, a stocking front, those all sing. I get messages from customers every winter asking about thread sub-ins, and the pink hat is the one most people swap out, sage green or mustard both look great if you want a less candy-pink read.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStitch the 6-inch size on a stocking cuff in red wool felt and the antlers catch light from across the room. Pop the smaller 3.51-inch on a kids xmas beanie patch. Skip stretch knits unless you stabilise heavy, dont let dense fills pull on jersey. Best on canvas, twill, felt, sweatshirt fleece, or wool blend. Holler if you hit a snag with the file format, Ill sort it out same day usually.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46261416820886,"sku":null,"price":4.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/FestiveChristmasGnomeEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1771829927","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/festive-christmas-gnome","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
