{"product_id":"jumping-dolphin-splash-3","title":"Jumping Dolphin Splash Embroidery Design, Marine Life Machine Embroidery Pattern, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eI get notes about this one more than almost any other marine design I have. The splash at the base is what makes it, eleven colours, with five separate thread changes just in the foam section to get that spray and movement reading as actual water. At the 7-in jumbo size its 57,502 stitches and a density of 167, so this is a real project. Skip the tearaway and go straight to cutaway stabiliser, especially if youre putting it on anything with body to it like a canvas bag or a jacket panel. Heres the thing: the radiating satin columns in the splash base need an even hooping or they pucker along the outer edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFive sizes, from a 3.5 to a 7.5 inches wide, and the proportions scale well because the composition was designed top-down from the 7.5 inch version rather than scaled up from small. The dolphin body uses directional fill stitches that follow the curve of the back, and the belly transitions from steel blue to pale grey using a colour blend technique that took a few test runs to get right in Wilcom. A customer ordered this last summer for a beach-themed jacket and messaged me when it came off the machine, said it looked like a photograph. Send a note if the file format you need isnt coming through correctly and Ill resend the right one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSo this one is genuinely one of the more technical designs in terms of stitch complexity. Its not hard to run once its on the machine, but set up the bobbin tension carefully before you start because eleven colour changes means youre stopping and starting alot, and any bobbin drift shows in the spray columns first. Use it big on tote bags or jacket backs, or go small at the chest 3.5 for a hat or shirt pocket. Pair it with white or pale blue fabric for the most contrast on the dark navy body. Text me a quick note if you need the splash adjusted for a different placement and Ill prep the file.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46330839236758,"sku":null,"price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/JumpingDolphinSplashEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1775560238","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/jumping-dolphin-splash-3","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
