{"product_id":"ice-cream-gnome","title":"Ice Cream Gnome Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis gnome has committed fully to frozen desserts and honestly its impossible not to love him for it. The hat is a tall pointed wizard style in cobalt blue covered with small gold stars and the brim dips low, the kind of hat that leaves you wondering how he sees anything at all. Long white beard hangs down almost to his feet where tiny dark boots poke out from the bottom. And in each hand theres one enormous waffle cone tower. Left one has a pink scoop and a sky blue scoop with a red cherry on top, dripping down the cone side. Right one matches. Fourteen colours, and basically all of em are in the scoops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBiggest size is 7.5 inches and hits 80k stitches, which makes it one of the heavier designs in my gnome range. The hat uses dense satin fill with the gold stars done as individual small satin shapes on top. The beard runs in directional stitching that flows downward strand by strand and gives it a fluffy texture rather than just a flat white block. Waffle cones use a crosshatch underlay beneath the tan satin top layer and thats what creates the grid impression. Really clean digitising from Wilcom on the scoop fills, the colour gradients on the drips look like theyre overlapping each other.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI made this originally for a customer who runs a summer market food stall and wanted matching aprons for her team last june. She needed something that said the product loud and clear from across a tent, and this one did exactly that at 7.5 inches. Now I get orders for it mostly as summer shirt designs, kids birthday tees and towel embroidery. And alot of adults who just love gnomes and wont apologise for it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBest on white or light coloured fabric so the 14 colours get their full brightness. Stitch on white cotton tees, cream linen aprons or pale blue canvas totes. Use a cutaway stabiliser because 80k stitches needs firm backing to stop it pulling. Hoop snug and run it at a steady speed through the hat section where the satin density is highest. But if ya machine grumbles just drop the speed by 20% and itll settle right down.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46389200519318,"sku":null,"price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/IceCreamGnomeEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1779105088","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/ice-cream-gnome","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
