{"product_id":"i-love-my-dad-memorial","title":"I Love My Dad Memorial Heartbeat Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis one took a while to get the composition right. The heart is the full shape and everything lives inside it: the pulse line runs clean across the top half in black satin, birds scatter upward through the right side in red, and the script fills the lower interior reading The Moment your Heart Stopped mine changed Forever. I Love My Dad arches at the very top. The orange-amber accent flowers anchor the lower corners and add a warmth that softens the grief without making it feel cheap or generic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e3 colour stops: a warm red for the I Love My Dad arc and the bird cluster, orange-amber for the accent flowers, and black for the pulse satin column, the body fill and the interior lettering. Wilcom EmbroideryStudio handled the script path well, the baselines follow the heart contour without warping. Density is 369 which is lighter than my usual portrait work, it gives the interior words room to breathe without crowding the birds or the floral corners.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStitch range is 21,266 at the 6 inch size up to 35,858 at nearly 10 inches. Its a wide design, widths run 5.82 to 9.70 inches, so dont try to cram it into a small hoop. Use a large enough hoop to keep the whole heart in frame. Stitch onto cutaway stabiliser, especially on anything thats going to get regular washing. Avoid tearaway here as it can shift the outer heart edge if the fabric moves mid run.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne customer emailed me after fathers day last june asking if I could scale the 8 inch file down to fit a throw pillow. The 6 inch size worked fine for that, she said the wording stayed legible at normal viewing distance. Keep proportions in mind when youre picking placement on the final item.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePeople mostly use this for memorial pillows, framed hoops and personalised keepsakes after loss. Pick a light fabric so the red birds and the orange flowers contrast well. Email me if the file gives you any trouble and Ill sort it out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46228822687894,"sku":null,"price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/ILoveMyDadMemorialHeartbeatEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1770439185","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/i-love-my-dad-memorial","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
