A thin black brushy Celebrate banner up top, then 1865 in big varsity block numerals filled red, then a bold yellow Juneteenth signature script running diagonally across the middle, then 1865 again in green block numerals mirrored along the bottom. Its dense, its loud in the best way, and it carries that full Pan-African palette in one piece. Wilcom EmbroideryStudio file, digitised with directional satin running along the long axis of each block stroke so the sheen catches the light evenly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd the maths from the production worksheet on the 5 inch hoop size, youre at 7,703 stitches across 4 colours where the yellow Juneteenth script takes the biggest share at 2,926 stitches. Bump up to the 8 inch and youre at 12,810 stitches where that script climbs to 4,787. Stitch density sits around 447 per square inch which is medium-firm, so the satin columns lay flat without buckling but theres enough thread on the surface to give the design some real weight. Total thread on the 8 inch run is 254 feet plus 100 feet of bobbin, worth knowing if youre planning a small batch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut heres the bit you need to watch. 4 colour stops means 3 colour changes mid-run plus around 23 to 28 trim commands depending on size. So youre not setting this and walking away. Stay near the machine for the colour swaps, keep your bobbin topped off, and use a fresh sharp 75\/11 embroidery needle because the overlapping varsity numerals do put strain on the needle plate. Hoop with a medium-weight cutaway stabiliser, no compromise on that bit. Add a poly mesh topping if your blank has any nap or stretch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne customer messaged me back in April last year saying she ran the 6 inch version on the back yoke of a denim jacket for a juneteenth pop-up market in Atlanta and it stitched out clean on the first hoop. She had to switch from her usual tearaway to a heavy cutaway because the denim weave kept shifting under the varsity block fills. So thats the move on woven cotton or denim.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePop it on a black or cream cotton tee so the red and green pop hardest. Avoid super dark navy because the black Celebrate banner up top loses contrast. Skip thin jersey unless youre willing to hoop two layers of stabiliser. Best on midweight cotton, fleece, canvas, or denim where the satin fills can settle and the colour separation reads from across the room.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46212361879702,"sku":null,"price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/JuneteenthFreedomLetteringEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1769488948","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/juneteenth-freedom-lettering","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
