The three little gnomes sit in a row across the bottom, each with a striped tall hat and those tiny dot noses gnomes always have. The middle one stands a bit taller and holds a little heart shape between his hands. Above them the words 'Merry Christmas' arc overhead in two styles, 'Merry' in a rounded cursive and 'Christmas' in a chunkier bold lettering. A bell with a tied bow hangs from the very top, and snowflakes fill the gaps on both sides. The whole thing sits on a solid baseline bar at the bottom so it reads as a contained panel design.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne customer ordered the 4.5-inch size hooped on a natural linen tea towel and sent me a photo last christmas, and the black outline on that cream linen background genuinely looked like a woodcut print. Thats the thing with single-thread outline designs, the fabric becomes part of the colour palette. White or off-white fabrics, cream cotton, natural linen, these all work brilliantly. Skip mid-grey or coloured backgrounds, the outline lines run thin at the smaller sizes and youll lose the detail.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHoop with a cutaway stabiliser for the larger sizes, the 6.5 and 7.5 inch versions have 82-92 trims and that much thread movement needs a firm backing. For the 3.5-inch version on a thin cotton pouch a light tearaway is fine. Run a pressing cloth over the finished piece rather than ironing directly, the satin sections in the lettering can flatten if you press too hard. Stitch count goes from 6,403 at the smallest up to 12,321 at the largest, 5 sizes total.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHoller if the file doesnt open right and I'll sort it out same day.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46247434092694,"sku":null,"price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/MerryChristmasGnomeTrioEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1771217966","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/merry-christmas-gnome-trio","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
