{"product_id":"mardi-gras-bow-fleur-de","title":"Mardi Gras Bow and Fleur-de-Lis Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003ePulled together three mardi gras symbols in one horizontal design. Left side is a fleur-de-lis in purple and gold with a white centre stripe down the middle stem. Centre is a classic tied ribbon bow in green, purple, and white, the kind youd see on a parade float or a gift box. Right side is a rounder, chunkier bow knot in the same carnival palette but arranged differently, more like a decorative cockade than a flat bow. Small 4-point and 6-point stars in purple, green, and gold are scattered around all three elements to fill the gaps.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSix colours total: mardi gras purple, amber gold, bright carnival green, white, and two accent tones for the star variation. Each element uses directional satin fills with the thread angle shifting between sections to build that subtle dimensional look. The fleur-de-lis gets a back-stitch outline running the full silhouette. Bow ribbons follow the curve of each loop so the satin fill rounds them out instead of leaving them flat. At 760 stitches per square inch its a moderately dense fill, firm enough to hold detail without making the fabric board-stiff.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNine sizes from 1.69 by 3.51 up to 3.62 by 7.5 inches, so it runs tall and narrow. At the small sizes the three elements stack in portrait orientation, at the big sizes they spread across a 5x7 hoop. A customer asked me to do a batch for parade throws last year and we knocked out 12 purple cotton pouches in one afternoon. They went fast, she sold half of them before she even got to the parade route.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBest on medium-weight woven cotton, canvas, or smooth polyester. Use a medium cutaway stabiliser so the fleur-de-lis, the bow, and the cockade all stay registered to each other. Dont use tear-away on anything stretchy or youll get drift between the left and right elements. Skip textured fabric, the star detail disappears into pile.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45827239444630,"sku":null,"price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/MardiGrasBowandFleur-de-LisMachineEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1762668204","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/mardi-gras-bow-fleur-de","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
