{"product_id":"gnome-scissors","title":"Gnome with Scissors Embroidery Design, Sewing Room Pattern","description":"\u003cp\u003eHeres the sewing gnome design and its packed with detail. Hes standing there clutching a pair of silver scissors almost as tall as him, with that long pointy hat curling over at the top in burnt orange and deep red swirls. The little round wooden nose pokes out under the hat brim, cream beard falls past a mustard yellow tunic, brown shoes peek out the bottom.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe hat has directional stitch lines so the swirl pattern wraps around properly instead of looking flat. Beard fills layer cream over pale grey shading so it reads soft, scissor blades are silver-grey satin with the directional fill catching light along each edge. Alot of texture in a small space.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI drew this one for sewing rooms and craft corner signage. Last christmas a customer ordered 12 of them on cream linen tea towels for a quilters guild secret santa swap. Realy popular with sewing teachers and small embroidery businesses too, the gnome reads as a craft mascot without being too cartoony.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStitch on cream linen, oatmeal canvas, soft mustard or charcoal cotton twill so the burnt orange hat carries clear. Skip stretch fabrics, the design hits 45k stitches at the largest size and the hoop will shift on knit. Pop a 5 inch version on a sewing apron pocket, run the 7.5 inch on a fabric wall banner.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDensest sections are the hat swirls and the scissor blades so use a heavy cutaway stabiliser, especially across the 9 sizes that go above 30k stitches. Drop a layer of mesh topping if your fabric has any nap. Use polyester thread on the orange and red, the hat colours hold up wash after wash.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45728544260246,"sku":null,"price":4.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/GnomewithScissorsMachineEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1760327501","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/gnome-scissors","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
