{"product_id":"freedom-sunflower","title":"Freedom Sunflower Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eIts a sunflower but the petals are the flag and the stem spells out freedom. Thats the whole idea and it works really well in thread. A fat black circular disc sits at the centre, petals radiating outward round the full disc in sections of red, navy and white. Not perfectly alternating, more like segments that bleed into each other the way light hits different petals at different angles. Some petals are solid red satin, some navy, some white with a black outline, and the mix gives the bloom genuine depth rather than looking flat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBelow the blossom the stem runs all the way down, long and elegant, and along it in a flowing cursive script is the word freedom. The letterforms are small and in black, kinda like the stem itself is writing the word as it grows downward. Its subtle compared to the bloom above but its what makes the whole composition click as a design rather than just a decorated flower. The total design runs tall, 4 inches on the smallest and up to 8 inches tall on the biggest file, which makes it a great vertical panel piece for the centre front of a shirt or a tote bag side panel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI put this together for a batch of 4th of july orders last summer specifically because I wanted something patriotic that didnt scream red white and blue from across the room. This one is quieter about it. My wife uses it on her garden market tote and she gets questions all the time about where she got it, people dont immediately clock its a patriotic design, they see the sunflower first. So it works year-round in a way the more in-your-face flag designs dont.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStitch range is 11,464 on the 4-inch up to 27,122 on the 8-inch tall version. Five sizes total. Use a cutaway stabiliser for all sizes, especially on the stem where the cursive script needs firm backing or the letters distort. Hoop the piece vertically, the tall aspect ratio means you need a hoop with enough clearance above and below. Good results on white cotton, ivory linen and natural canvas. The red and navy petals photograph especially well outdoors in natural light.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46226660393110,"sku":null,"price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/FreedomSunflowerEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1770282722","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/freedom-sunflower","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
