{"product_id":"funny-cow-face-flowers","title":"Funny Cow Face with Flowers Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eSketched this one out after a customer asked for something funny for her daughter's farm-themed bedroom. Its a full cartoon cow face, front on, tongue flopped out and hanging down past the chin. Big round eyes with that slightly startled look, tiny olive-coloured horns poking up at the top, and a fluffy grey-charcoal head that takes up most of the design space. The inner ears are a deep orange, same shade as the muzzle, which gives it alot of warmth for what is technically a grey cow.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBelow the chin theres a row of white daisy heads sitting in bright green grass. Three main daisies across the bottom with a couple of smaller ones tucked in at the sides. Each petal is a short satin shape radiating out from an orange-yellow centre disc. The grass is a tight zigzag underlay in two tones of green that reads as actual blades of grass, not just a green band. And then the tongue is this brilliant pink, just plopped there in the middle. Its exactly as ridiculous as it sounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e16 colours total, which sounds like alot but every one earns its place. Cow fur uses 4-5 grey and charcoal tones with directional fill that goes across the face to give the impression of short animal hair. Density is 1058 stitches per square inch and the largest size hits 55k stitches, so plan for a decent thread run time. The face alone has several colour stops for the spots, the shading around the muzzle and the eye whites. Use a medium-weight cutaway stabiliser, hoop firmly on woven fabric, and run a light water-soluble topping on any fluffy fleece so the dense fills dont sink into the pile.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI get messages all the time from people who buy this for kids rooms and then end up putting it on their own aprons instead. One customer showed me the finished pieces last winter, shed stitched it on a tote bag and her toddler carried it to nursery every day for a month. Smallest size is 3.25 by 3.5 inches, biggest goes 6.96 by 7.5. So it works on a kids tee front and equally on a large cushion cover.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePick light or medium fabric colours so the grey reads clearly. Natural, cream, pale blue, sage green or light denim all work well. Pair with thread weights that suit the density, 40wt in the polyester fill sections and 60wt for the fine detail on those white eye highlights and whisker dots. Stitch the face first and the daisies last as the grass underlay acts as a natural anchor for the outer petals. Holler if the file needs adjusting for your hoop size.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45826018902166,"sku":null,"price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/FunnyCowFacewithFlowersMachineEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1762602638","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/funny-cow-face-flowers","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
