{"product_id":"floral-sea-turtle","title":"Floral Sea Turtle Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe turtle body is basically a chunk of dense black satin fill, properly solid, no outline fussing around the edges. Shell sections are separated by curved seam lines stitched right into the fill so you get the shell plate pattern without any colour change. Head is forward-facing with two small round eyes picked out in the same outline stitch used for the bubbles. Four flippers splay out, front pair reaching forward like its mid-stroke.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBehind the turtle theres a big open anemone flower sits centre-right, five broad petals done in radiating outline stitch so they stay open and light against the filled body. A second smaller star-shaped bloom sits beside it, petals fanning out in matching open stitch. Seagrass curls up from the base in two thin stems. Three open rings of different sizes float upper left, the bubble detail. So its filled animal plus open botanicals, two completely different stitch textures in one colour, and that contrast is what makes it look good.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI digitised this one in Wilcom EmbroideryStudio and density-wise its 707 per square inch, on the high end, so use a medium to heavy cutaway stabiliser. Smallest size is 3.06 by 3.51 inches, largest is 6.55 by 7.51. A customer ordered the big version last summer for her kids beach bags, stitched it on canvas totes and sent photos. Comes out bold enough to read from across a room.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBest results on a pale or mid-tone background. White, cream, or sand canvas lets the black read properly. Avoid black or very dark navy, the design disappears. Light denim works well if youre going for a washed coastal feel. Hoop tight with a firm cutaway beneath and a water-soluble topping if the fabric has any texture to it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRun through slowly on the dense satin sections, especially the turtle shell and body, because at 34k stitches on the big size there is alot of thread going down fast. Slow your machine to around sixty to seventy percent speed for the fill sections and your tension will thank you for it. Ping me through the shop if anything goes sideways and Ill fix it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46063650439318,"sku":null,"price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/FloralSeaTurtleEmbroideryDesign.jpg?v=1767413343","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/floral-sea-turtle","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
