{"product_id":"melting-eye","title":"Melting Eye Embroidery Design, Surreal Abstract Machine Pattern, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eA single eye with a detailed iris staring straight at you and then the whole lower lid just melts. The drips hang down in long uneven verticals beneath where the eye socket should end. Everything above the eye line, lash and brow, is intact and detailed. Below it just dissolves. Its a genuinely striking visual and the stitch work does it justice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTen colours including the graduated iris tones, the dark pupil detail, the skin tones around the lid and then those long drip sections in dark ink with some teardrop-blue threading through. Density is 429 stitches per square inch, moderate, nothing extreme. Stitch count runs from 9,325 at 3.34 inches to 22,998 at the full 7.14 inch width and it doesnt take long to stitch out.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI get messages from alt fashion people and artists on this one regularly. My favourite was a customer who stitched the 7-inch version on the back panel of a black denim jacket last autumn and actually used metallic thread for the drips. That was inspired. Alot of people also use it as a sleeve piece on darker hoodies and it looks brilliant there too.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWorks best on black, dark navy, charcoal or white fabric. Skip mid-tones because the colour contrast disappears. Use a good cutaway stabiliser on denim and fleece to handle the moderate density without puckering. Dont topstitch over the drip sections after the fact as it breaks the visual effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd if the download isnt working, just let me know straight away. Five sizes from 3.34 to 7.14 inches wide, 3.5 to 7.5 inches tall, so its close to square, great for centred front chest pieces or sleeve panels. Run it at your machines standard speed.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46332594585750,"sku":null,"price":4.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/MeltingEyeEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1775648859","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/melting-eye","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
