{"product_id":"flying-dragons-vertical-border","title":"Flying Dragons Vertical Border Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eRight so five dragons are stacked in a column, each one a solid black silhouette with spread wings and a curled tail. The poses shift between each dragon so its not a simple repeat, one has wings higher, another the tail curls the other way, a third looks like its banking mid-flight. Stack em vertically and you get a proper border that reads as a dragon patrol rather than copy-pasted clip art. Thats the thing that makes it work as a border, the micro-variation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSingle colour, solid fill throughout. No outline passes, no colour stops, just one long run of dense tatami fill that builds each dragon shape from the top of the column down. Density is 597 stitches per square inch, thats high for a one-colour silhouette, which means the black reads very flat and opaque, no fabric shadow-through. At the largest size, 8.51 wide by 2.29 tall, the whole border hits 11,629 stitches. Smallest is 4.5 by 1.2 inches at 5,556. Use a medium cutaway stabiliser on any knit, tearaway on stiff woven canvas or denim.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIm not gonna pretend this is a mainstream design. Its absolutely for the fantasy and gaming crowd and they tend to be picky about quality. The silhouette detail on each dragon's wing membrane and tail actually looks like cut paper when you stitch it on a smooth black fabric in a lighter charcoal thread. A customer last year ran it on the sleeve of a dark green fleece pullover for their tabletop gaming group and said 3 people asked where the patch came from before they even sat down.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBest on smooth woven cotton, denim, or canvas where the dense fill sits flat. Avoid loosely woven fabric or terry cloth, the fine wing detail blurs. Pick a bold contrast, black on white reads graphic and clean, white on black looks like a dark-art silkscreen. Stitch across a book sleeve, a bag strap, or the side panel of a backpack for a vertical stripe that actually means something. Skip pale pink or yellow fabric unless youre going for ironic contrast, which, honestly, some people pull off.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45829383422102,"sku":null,"price":2.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/FlyingDragonsVerticalBorderMachineEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1762745414","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/flying-dragons-vertical-border","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
