{"product_id":"ladybug-split-monogram","title":"Ladybug Split Monogram Embroidery Design, Kids Machine Embroidery Pattern, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003ePulled this together for anyone whos been hunting a ladybug that works as a proper split monogram frame. Heres what you get: the bug is shown face-on from above, round red body with black spots, curly black antennae, and a thick horizontal satin bar slicing right across the waist so your letter or name drops neatly into that open centre space. Nothing gets cluttered. The spot placement is deliberate, three on the upper dome and two on the lower half, so theres alot of breathing room for a 3- or 4-inch capital letter in the gap.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e9 sizes available, stitch counts ranging 1.6k to 18.2k depending on how large you go. The small end, around 2 inch, runs about 3,900 stitches and honestly holds the detail well, the antennae satin columns stay crisp even tiny. Punched the file inside Wilcom with clean underlay on the red fill sections so you get good density without the fabric puckering underneath. Lay fusible mesh under the bar, its heavy satin and needs the backing to stay flat. I tested this on quilting cotton and on a light fleece back in June and both came out clean, no pulling at the bar edges.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI get messages about what fabrics work best for kids monogram pieces and the honest answer is: knit onesies need a topping layer, everything else is fine. Run the red first, swap to black, done. One colour change, 2 stops total. Pop your letter font choice into the gap before hooping and make sure it clears the bar by at least 2mm top and bottom.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd Ive had a few people ask about putting this on hats. Its doable but stick to the 2-inch or 3-inch on a structured cap, anything bigger and the bar pulls on the brim seam. Best to hoop a test swatch first if youre unsure about the fabric weight.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45859938599062,"sku":null,"price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/LadybugSplitMonogramMachineEmbroideryDesign.jpg?v=1763876088","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/ladybug-split-monogram","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
