{"product_id":"nautical-anchor-stars","title":"Nautical Anchor \u0026 Stars Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eSo this one started cause one customer asked for a nautical piece that didnt feel stiff or overly serious. Two anchors crossed at the centre, one in bright lime and the other in deep teal, with rope swirls curling around them and little starfish dotted in between. I stitched the test on a pale chambray tote last summer at about 6 inch wide and the rope flourishes ended up being my favourite bit, the satin curls catch the light from a totally different direction compared to the anchor fills.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe mix of green tones is what carries it really. Lime against teal against that sage-grey starfish colour gives you alot of visual layers without it turning busy, and the navy peeks through on the chain detail at the bottom. Pick the satin fills tight on the anchor bodies but loosen the density on the rope swirls so they read as movement, not weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNine sizes are included, smallest at about 3.51 inch square (around 22914 stitches) up to a 7.5 inch fit at 52761 stitches. Five colours total, runs Tajima format out of Wilcom. Stitch density sits at about 937 spi, pretty standard for a multi-colour applique-feel piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBest fabric in my opinion is mid-weight cotton canvas or linen, something with abit of structure so the rope curls dont pull the weave. Stitch the test piece on a bleached canvas pillow cover at 6.46 inch and it sits clean with just one layer of medium tearaway behind it, no extra topping needed cause the satin coverage is high enough on its own. Hoop firm, dont overstretch the canvas or those curling lines will distort during the colour changes.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45768197046422,"sku":null,"price":4.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/NauticalAnchor_StarsMachineEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1761456627","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/nautical-anchor-stars","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
