{"product_id":"floating-heart-cluster","title":"Floating Heart Cluster Embroidery Design, Valentine Machine Embroidery Pattern, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eRight so this is the one I made for people who wanted hearts but didnt want the usual single centered heart thats been done a thousand times. Seven of them, different sizes, scattered in a loose diagonal that rises from the bottom-left corner up toward the top-right, like theyre drifting off into the air. The biggest sits near the middle of the cluster, 2 smaller ones float above it and 4 tiny ones fill in around the edges. Thats the whole composition and it works because of the size variation, not in spite of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach heart is a solid red satin fill with no outline, no border, just the shape. Directional stitching runs at a slight angle across each heart so the satin catches light differently as you turn the piece, which gives you that slight sheen variation across the cluster. The hearts arent perfectly spaced or sized, theres a deliberate randomness to the scatter pattern that makes it feel hand-placed rather than gridded.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSingle colour stop, no changeover needed. Density is 435 stitches per square inch with max stitches around 9k at the biggest size, so youre looking at 20 minutes or under on most machines. Five sizes: narrowest is 3.49 inches wide, tallest runs to 7.5 inches high at the biggest, so the proportions are taller than wide since the hearts float vertically. A customer last year stitched the 7.5 face on the front of a white canvas gift bag to give at a Valentine house party and said it was the easiest project shed done all season.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWorks on basically anything, white cotton, cream linen, blush pink fabric, pale grey, light denim. The red reads bold on anything light so you have lots of options. Avoid red or dark pink backgrounds, youll lose the shapes. Lay a tearaway on woven fabric and a medium cutaway on stretch. Hoop firm and keep a steady speed, the satin fill on the smallest hearts needs even tension or the columns can look choppy. Pick a good quality polyester red thread, 40wt runs clean on the fills. Email the shop with your number and Ill suggest tension settings.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46328230903958,"sku":null,"price":2.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/FloatingHeartClusterEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1775468357","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/floating-heart-cluster","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
