{"product_id":"jumping-koi-fish","title":"Jumping Koi Fish Embroidery Design, Japanese Koi Pattern, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eSingle koi fish mid-leap, body arching upward with the tail curling down and the mouth open at the top. Classic japanese good luck pose, the kind you see on woodblock prints and traditional fabric art. The digitising ran each scale individually so you can actually see them rather than a generic fish-texture fill.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e6 colours: deep orange-red body, white belly, black for the scale outlines and eye, gold on the flowing fins, teal-blue water splash at the base, and navy for the deeper shadow sections. Directional satin stitching on the body follows the curve of the fish so the scales catch light the way real koi scales do. Fins use a looser satin column. The water splash at the bottom uses short dense stitches that feel almost like foam.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eComes in 5 sizes, 3.5 inches wide at the smallest up to 7.5 inches. Stitch count range is 9,558 to 22,809 which puts the large version firmly in the complex category. Cutaway stabiliser is a must on any size if youre stitching this on a jacket or bag. Use topping on velvet or any pile fabric so those fine scale lines dont sink into the weave.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne customer sent me a photo last december, they stitched the 7.5 inch version on the back of a black varsity jacket and it was honestly one of the best finished pieces ive seen from a home machine. Also works great on canvas tote bags, denim, and dark cotton shirts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse a tearaway only if youre working with very heavy canvas and the small sizes. For everything else, cutaway. Message me if you need a replacement file or if the download doesnt complete.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46318790639766,"sku":null,"price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/JumpingKoiFishEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1774938470","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/jumping-koi-fish","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
