Nine colours lets the composition split into real sections, the tail scales get their own teal and seafoam tones, the outer border gets the deeper navy, and the skin and hair tones sit warm in between. Built the surround as a proper satin border rather than an outline-only, so it holds its weight visually even at 3.5 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDensity sits at 67, which is medium for this level of detail. The scale texture on the tail is done with a short directional satin that gives a bit of a shimmer effect when the light hits it. For that to show properly you want a stable woven base, quilting cotton, canvas, denim, linen all work well. Avoid hooping stretch knits directly; the underlay isnt optimised for that and youll get some drag on the scale sections. If you must stitch onto jersey, use a firm cutaway and consider a topping layer. Stitch the border sections last for the cleanest overlapping satin edges.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNine sizes from 3.5 to 7.5 inches wide, 1,056 to 24,484 stitches. The 5-in build for a natural linen tote bag is probably the most popular use I hear about. Place it centred on the front panel and the scroll border gives it a finished, almost monogrammed feel. Pair it with a solid colour tote and keep the rest of the bag plain to let it breathe. Use the 3.5-in build for a small drawstring bag for party favours and it stitches quickly in batches on cotton.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45799361544342,"sku":null,"price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/MermaidRibbonFrameMachineEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1762081100","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/mermaid-ribbon-frame-2","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
