{"product_id":"gnome-bat-spider-web-hat","title":"Gnome with Bat and Spider Web Hat Embroidery Design, Halloween Machine Embroidery, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eMy niece pointed at this design on the screen last october and said it looked like a gnome who really committed to halloween, which I think is the best possible description. Seven colours at 15,206 stitches, this is a proper dense stitch-out at density 233, so the bat on the hat actually has body to it and the web detail doesnt collapse. The gnome sits at 2.88 by 3.51 inches, portrait format, tall enough to read clearly on a child-size sweatshirt aswell as an adult hoodie chest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI digitised this in Wilcom and spent alot of time on the hat. The hat detail uses radiating satin lines with thin underlay so the lacy pattern stays open rather than blocky. Its wings have directional fill that gives em a slight curved lift. Stabiliser-wise, use cutaway on knits and fleece, at density 233 you need the support or the border stitching pulls. For wovens, a firm tearaway works fine. Hop it in a 4x5 or larger hoop.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrop a topping layer of water-soluble stabiliser if youre stitching on fluffy fleece, it keeps the web lines crisp and the bat wings readable. I had a customer order this for a bunch of kids trick-or-treat bags and she sent me a photo after; the lacy web pattern read perfectly on dark navy canvas. Black and dark orange read best on cream, natural, or light grey ground fabrics, so plan accordingly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse a 75\/11 needle and match your bobbin thread to the dominant background, black or charcoal bobbin usually works. Drop me a message if the file gives you anything unexpected and Ill sort it out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46412805472406,"sku":null,"price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/GnomewithBatandSpiderWebHatEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1780556265","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/gnome-bat-spider-web-hat","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
