{"product_id":"floral-swirl-heart","title":"Floral Swirl Heart Embroidery Design, Ornate Red Lace Heart Pattern","description":"\u003cp\u003eSo this isnt a solid filled heart at all. The heart shape is built entirely from curling vine scrollwork, the kind of flowing line you see in lace or cutwork embroidery. There are what look like butterfly wing shapes spreading outward from the upper curves of the heart, and extra tendrils and small leaf forms curling away at the bottom. The centre stays open so whatever fabric is underneath shows through. Really graceful design.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSingle red thread the whole way through, no colour changes needed. The density is 488 and the satin columns trace every curve with directional fill that follows the direction of each scroll, which keeps the finish clean rather than looking like a random fill pattern. Smallest size is 3.51 inches wide at 11,340 stitches, largest stretches to 7.51 inches wide at 22,088 stitches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd people who love traditional embroidery aesthetics really respond to this one. A customer who makes valentines homeware ordered the 6 inch version on white cotton, had it framed in a round hoop, and told me it sold out at her February market stall before noon on the first day. So thats a good sign.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWorks especially well on white linen, cream cotton muslin, or any light neutral fabric where the red thread really stands out. The open lace effect shows the fabric through so the colour and texture underneath become part of the finished look. Tearaway works under woven cotton, cutaway if youre stitching on denser fabric like canvas or denim. Dont skip the stabiliser just because the density looks low, the scrollwork satin columns need good backing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePick a white or cream linen and the whole thing reads like antique lace. Pop it on a dark fabric and youve got a completely different feel, rich and dramatic rather than delicate.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46284236619926,"sku":null,"price":3.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/FloralSwirlHeartEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1773044810","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/floral-swirl-heart","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
