{"product_id":"gothic-skull-rose-butterfly-2","title":"Gothic Skull Rose Butterfly Embroidery Design, Machine Embroidery Pattern, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe skull faces forward, dead centre, wide grin showing the teeth, and a crescent moon sits up on the crown with curling vine spirals either side of it like a crown. One red rose on the left, one on the right, both fully open blooms with green leaves fanned out below em. And sitting right across the skulls forehead is a monarch butterfly, wings open, orange and black, its the only warm colour in the whole piece. At the bottom, two black leaf shapes point downward and close out the composition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e6 colours, 5 colour changes, and the dominant one is black. Big black. 21,000-plus stitches in black alone on the mid size which is why the outlines look so crisp and engraved. The bone area stitches in white and grey with fine cross-hatch underlay to give it some dimension rather than a flat patch. Red rose fills are satin columns running lengthwise through each petal. Stitch count hits 68k running the largest size, 28k on the smallest. And the design is 9 sizes from 3.44 inches up to 7.37 inches wide.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlot of people grab this for custom apparel and jacket work. Its got the traditional tattoo flash look that works on black denim or canvas without needing explanation. I sell this one mostly to people doing gothic bridal merch, halloween apparel and alternative fashion shops. But honestly it works on any dark-background piece where you want something with some edge to it. Its versatile in that niche, Its a design that doesnt need context.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRun it on black, charcoal or dark navy. The white skull area and red roses sing hard on those backgrounds and the green leaves separate cleanly. Skip light backgrounds because the composition is built around those heavy black fills and they look flat on cream or white fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCutaway stabiliser underneath, mesh or standard depending on your fabric weight. Hoop firm and run at moderate speed especially through the forehead section where the grey underlay and white satin overlap tightly. And the butterfly sits right at the top so make sure your bobbin tension is consistent through that section or the orange satin goes patchy. Dont rush the black sections either, thats where the crispness comes from. Every customer who sends me a photo of the finished jacket back says the same thing, it looks like a real tattoo flash piece on fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46381886505110,"sku":null,"price":4.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/GothicSkullRoseButterflyEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1778557692","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/gothic-skull-rose-butterfly-2","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
