{"product_id":"happy-valentine-s-day","title":"Happy Valentine's Day Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eKnocked out this one to be the classic formal version of a valentines greeting rather than a playful or casual one. Happy sits in smaller print lettering at the top, Valentine's sweeps across the middle in the most prominent element of the piece, a wide flowing script with good thick-thin contrast in the letter strokes, and Day closes out below in a complementary script size. The whole text block is framed above and below with ornate scrollwork flourishes, those curling vine-like decorative borders you see on vintage greeting cards and invitations. Small solid red hearts sit at the points where the scrollwork connects and curves, the only colour accent against the otherwise all-black work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwo colours really simply, black does everything except those red hearts. The script letterforms in Valentine's use satin stitch and the thick strokes carry good density to give them that proper calligraphy look when stitched on smooth fabrics. The scrollwork takes the most technical effort since its all fine lines and curves that need steady bobbin tension and good hooping to stay clean. Kinda the make-or-break part. Heres my advice, slow down through it. Im strict on this one. Youll thank yourself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFive sizes, widths 3.51 to 7.51 inches, heights 2.63 to 5.62, so its a wider-than-tall landscape composition at all sizes. Stitch counts run 8,651 to 19,036 which is manageable across the whole range. Back with tearaway on crisp woven cotton or linen, cutaway for stretchy or soft fabrics. Avoid fluffy or textured surfaces like minky or terry where the fine scrollwork lines will sink and disappear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI get consistent orders for this one from people digitising customising it for home decor projects. One customer ran it this past February on a set of 4 linen placemats for a valentines dinner party and said the black and red against the natural linen was really really classic looking. Use it on white, cream, charcoal or navy for the best results.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46287735160982,"sku":null,"price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/HappyValentine_sDayEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1773202040","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/happy-valentine-s-day","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
