{"product_id":"i-am-black-history-woman","title":"I Am Black History Woman Silhouette Embroidery Design, Machine Embroidery Pattern, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is the I Am Black History woman piece and it carries real weight. The design is a solid silhouette of a woman with a full natural afro, shown in profile, and the words I AM BLACK HISTORY sit boldly below the figure. The silhouette is filled at a density of 555 so the stitch surface has that rich solid look rather than anything thin or see-through. Its not a sketch or an outline, its a full filled shape that stands out hard against light fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSingle colour all the way. Stitch count starts at 7,316 on the 3.5 inch size and tops out at 22,581 on the 7.48 inch version. The lettering uses tight satin columns for the strokes and the silhouette fill is a tatami stitch to keep the surface even. Customers come back to this one every February for Black History Month but honestly its appropriate year round.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eText like this orders well because customers want something they can put their name behind. One person I heard from last spring stitched a batch of these on black tote bags in gold thread as gifts for her study group. She said they suprised everyone with how clean the stitching turned out. The contrast of gold on black is sharp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse a cutaway stabiliser, this level of fill density on a solid silhouette needs solid backing. Tearaway wont hold reliably under 22k stitches on cotton or canvas. Back your fabric properly and hoop tight before you start.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e5 sizes total, 3.5 up to 7.48 inches wide. Stitch it on cotton twill, canvas, heavy cotton or denim. Skip light chiffon or thin knit for the larger sizes, the density needs a fabric with some body behind it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46293875654806,"sku":null,"price":3.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/IAmBlackHistoryWomanSilhouetteEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1773552531","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/i-am-black-history-woman","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
