{"product_id":"halloween-gnome-pumpkins","title":"Halloween Gnome with Pumpkins Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe gnome is barely taller than his pumpkin stack. Thats the whole gag and it works every time. Hes got a big red polka-dot mushroom hat, long fluffy white beard hiding everything below his round lil nose, and hes just standing there next to 3 carved jack-o-lanterns piled on top of each other, each with a different triangle-eye expression. Bare twig branches stick out from either side like the designers wanted some spooky atmosphere without losing the cute.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e15 colours in this one, and Wilcom did a lot of the heavy lifting on the pumpkin texture. Theres a cross-hatched satin fill on the amber orange sections that gives the gourds that slightly dimensional look, not flat like a clip art print. The red hat has dense directional stitching with the black dot spots done as clean satin columns. Density runs high, the largest 7.01-inch size comes in at 74,517 stitches total, so hooping snug and going at moderate speed is worth it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI get messages about the gnome-pumpkin design every september, people stocking up before halloween season. One buyer reached out last october asking whether it would work on a fleece table runner. I told her go for it with a topping layer of water-soluble film over the fleece to stop the stitches sinking into the pile. She came back a week later saying it worked and she ended up stitching 4 of them across a long harvest cloth. Alot of thread but the result sounded brilliant.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePop this on cotton twill, canvas, or natural linen. Cream and off-white grounds let the orange pumpkins and red hat really come out. Avoid dark navy or black base fabric here because the black outline stitching disappears and the design loses definition. Use firm cutaway stabiliser on all sizes, tearaway isnt enough at this stitch count. Drop me a message if your machine struggles on the fill sections and Ill walk you through the settings.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45834884513942,"sku":null,"price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/HalloweenGnomewithPumpkinsMachineEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1762860159","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/halloween-gnome-pumpkins","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
