{"product_id":"get-off-my-tail-mermaid","title":"Get Off My Tail Mermaid Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003ePulled this one together around a pretty simple idea, big chunky mermaid tail on the left taking up most of the space, and a hand lettered 'Get off my tail' sweeping across the middle in a loose pink cursive. The lettering style is rounded brush script with those slightly uneven letter heights that make it read hand-done rather than computer generated. The tail itself has a teal and dark teal scale pattern with individual scale outlines, pink fin at the top, and a few hearts and little bubble dots scattered around. Its got a beachy sassy energy thats hard to miss.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e3 colours total which means you swap thread twice at most. 5 sizes from 3.5 up to 7.2 inches wide. Stitch count goes from about 13k at the smallest up to 30k at the largest, density sits around 564, so its a solid mid-density design. The scale section and the letters are the densest parts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMy friend stitched this on a white canvas beach bag last summer and it got compliments every single time she took it out. Run a layer of cutaway stabiliser under before you hoop on any bag fabric, canvas and heavy cotton especially need that support under the scale fills. On a t-shirt you can go tearaway but use a medium weight one. Skip anything with a lot of texture or pile because the lettering stitches dont read clearly on rough surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe pink cursive uses satin column stitching through the letters so keep your thread tension even or you get gaps in the longer downstrokes. Works on white, cream, pale grey and light teal base fabrics. On navy or black it looks good with lighter teal thread for the scales and gold or white for the text. Dm me if you want a version without the text, its a different file but I can sort it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46056414576790,"sku":null,"price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/GetOffMyTailMermaidEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1767004418","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/get-off-my-tail-mermaid","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
