The outline traces the body and wing edges in a solid run but the feather detail inside the wings breaks into loose ink-wash style strokes, like someone painted it with a pointed brush and let the bristles splay slightly at the tips. Single colour. 3 sizes only, 5.5 inches wide up to 7.5 inches, stitch count 1,491 to 1,859. Thats a surprisingly fast run. Two minutes on most machines at the small end.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e1,800 stitches is barely anything and it still reads as a complete finished piece. Thats the whole point of the watercolour-line hybrid approach, minimal thread, maximum impression. The broken feather strokes across the wing panels do more work than a fill would at this scale because they suggest texture without adding weight. Recieved a nice message last week from a maker who put three swallows in a row on a linen scarf and said the low stitch count let her do the whole thing in under eight minutes total. My customers who do wildlife and bird themed apparel love this one for exactly that reason.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTry it on the back collar band of a shirt, a small wrist cuff, or scattered across a wide-leg trouser hem. Works on any plain woven fabric where the thread colour contrasts, its that forgiving. Use it on navy or dark fabric with a lighter thread colour and the open-body outline reads even better because your eye fills in the negative space. If you want help getting the placement right on a curved surface send me message and Ill walk you through the hooping.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTearaway stabiliser is fine for all sizes. Low density, no cutaway needed. Hoop cotton, linen, canvas or twill without over-tensioning. Skip topping on plain wovens, the detail strokes in the feathers dont need it. One color. Done.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46293840134294,"sku":null,"price":1.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/FlyingSwallowLineArtEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1773545251","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/flying-swallow-line-art","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
