{"product_id":"merry-catmas-paw-print-christmas","title":"Merry Catmas Paw Print Christmas Tree Embroidery Design, Cat Christmas Pattern","description":"\u003cp\u003eMy mum stitched this onto a linen tote last november and I think shes made five more since. The idea is simple but it sticks in your head: a Christmas tree shape but built from wispy botanical fronds, like wild carrot or fern leaves, not the usual triangled pine. And then instead of sitting on a little pot or tree stand it sits right on top of a large cat paw print, the big central pad and four smaller toe pads above it. Below everything the words Merry Catmas in a looping casual cursive, the kind of handwritten lettering that looks slightly different on each letter which is charming not sloppy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRun a layer of medium-weight cutaway under the hoop before you start. Single colour designs like this can catch people out because they assume it'll be quick, and it is faster than a multicolour character piece, but the stitch count still goes up to about thirty two thousand at the largest size so it's not a race. The botanical frond texture is what takes the most thread, the leaves have a dense directional fill that makes them look three-dimensional compared to a flat satin fill. The paw pad outlines are cleaner and smoother.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFour sizes, smallest around 3.5 inches tall and largest at 7.5 inches. The medium size around 5.5 inches is the one I'd use for a sweatshirt or bag, it's big enough to read clearly but doesnt take over the whole piece. Stitch it on any stable base fabric without much fuss. Works on fleece with a topper on top, just make sure the topper is thin enough that the lettering doesnt get buried. Cat owners buy this one constantly in the build up to the holidays.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46266691518614,"sku":null,"price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/MerryCatmasPawPrintChristmasTreeEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1772258692","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/merry-catmas-paw-print-christmas","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
