{"product_id":"festive-evergreen-swag-holiday-border-2","title":"Festive Evergreen Swag Holiday Border Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eA swag border sits differently to a straight garland strip. This one curves inward at the top and fans out lower down, like it was draped rather than glued flat. The overlapping clusters have a small amount of intentional layering, which is what I find gives this its proper three dimensional quality and not a flat printed border look. Two shades of forest green, a darker base layer and a mid-tone top, with a warm gold highlight picking out a few branch tips. Thats the thing that makes it look genuinely festive, not just green.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFive sizes, 3.5 inches at the smallest going up to 7.51 inches. Width ranges from 0.82 to 1.75 inches so its still a narrow piece but with more body than the extra-thin garland formats. Max 6,466 stitches. I set the underlay passes to run at a 45-degree angle so the satin overlay has something to grip and the density settles flat. Email me if the bobbin tension looks off at first, sometimes its just a thread weight thing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHooped with a cutaway stabiliser it behaves well on almost everything. On velvet or plush holiday fabric use a topping sheet aswell to stop the branch tips from losing definition. Canvas tote bags need a firm cutaway, lighter fabrics like linen or cotton broadcloth handle a medium tearaway fine. One customer ran a row of these down both side seams of a Christmas apron last year and it came out solid, she told me the gold tips were her favourite part.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRun two copies mirrored horizontally to make a matching pair for mantelpiece banner ends. Stitch it on a stocking front above the heel for a classic holiday panel. Pair with a coordinating horizontal holly border at the hem. Best on cream, red or plaid cotton where all three thread colours read clearly from normal viewing distance. Email a note if the download hits any snags and Ill resend it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46072891736214,"sku":null,"price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/FestiveEvergreenSwagHolidayBorderEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1767683377","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/festive-evergreen-swag-holiday-border-2","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
