{"product_id":"leopard-bow-messy-bun","title":"Leopard Bow Messy Bun Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis one is shot from above, which is what makes it work so well. Youre looking straight down at the top of someones head, big messy bun sticking up, black hair going everywhere in loose scribbly satin strands. Sitting right across the middle is a wide leopard print bow, amber orange base with dark brown spots, and below that a pair of matching leopard print aviator sunglasses. The combination is suprisingly well balanced for how chaotic it looks at first glance, its kinda a lot going on but it works.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe leopard spots are the hardest part of a design like this to get right in thread. Done in Wilcom EmbroideryStudio with the spot shapes using a dark brown satin fill at density 1657 laid over the amber base, each spot is individually digitised, not a repeating texture pattern. Its time-consuming but it means the spots scale properly across all 4 sizes without turning into blobs at the smaller end. Sizes run from 4.5 inches wide up to 7.5 inches, stitch count from 35,922 to 62,245.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter receiving this one a customer wrote that she stitched it onto a cream sweatshirt and got stopped at the school pickup asking where she bought it. That kind of reaction tells you something. Best on medium-weight cotton or sweatshirt fleece with heavy cutaway stabiliser, the dense fill needs a stable base or youll get drag at the outer hair strands. Pop the bobbin tension down slightly if the satin on the bow is pulling tight at the edges. Pair this with a matching solid-colour garment rather than a print, you want the leopard to do the talking. Avoid lightweight jersey without cutaway backing underneath.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePeople put this on sweatshirts and hoodies as a statement front, on canvas bags for the wild side of the tote bag market. Also on baseball caps for the messy bun crowd. Versatile enough for a gift.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46268090876054,"sku":null,"price":4.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/LeopardBowMessyBunEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1772348757","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/leopard-bow-messy-bun","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
