{"product_id":"neon-whimsical-cat","title":"Neon Whimsical Cat Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eRight so this one only makes sense on black fabric, it reads as absolutely nothing on light colours, thats the only rule really. Its a seated cat in the Cheshire style, body upright, tail dropping down and curling back up in a big S-curve to the left. The fur runs in alternating bands of neon magenta, deep purple and teal that wrap around the body from head to tail tip. Eleven colour stops. A white fringe outline circles the silhouette edge to give that fluffy halo effect that only works when the background is dark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEyes are bright teal satin fills with a small white catch light each, and the inner ear surfaces carry a lighter pink-magenta. The chest area has a lighter blended section so the neon reads as fur volume rather than a flat stripe. Tail stripes use the same band sequence as the body so it reads as one continuous coat pattern. The fringe outline is a specialty short satin pass around the full outside edge that gives the cat that fuzzy backlit look in photos.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the kind of design cat people see once and immediately know where theyre putting it. Stitched on a black cotton zip hoodie for my neighbours kid last spring, she wanted something for a school art show, and 3 people at the event asked where it came from. The narrow width means it sits well on a sleeve or a narrow front panel, the widest size is only 4.6 inches across.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlack fabric is the only real option here. Try a medium cutaway stabiliser since you need the outline fringe to sit properly without the base puckering. Slow the machine down on the fringe pass at the outside edge, its short satin at a slight angle and rushing it causes skipped stitches. Use polyester thread on the neon colours if you can, the magenta and teal stay brighter wash after wash compared to rayon. Keep your bobbin tension consistent through all 11 colour stops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNine sizes from 2.14 by 3.5 inches up to 4.6 by 7.5. Its a tall and narrow shape so it works on sleeve panels, mask fronts, small pouch faces and narrow garment plackets. Pair with a small star or moon design for a full fantasy night theme. Text me if the registration slips between the stripe colours on the tail section and Ill rebuild the registration.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46351174992022,"sku":null,"price":4.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/NeonWhimsicalCatEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1776589535","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/neon-whimsical-cat","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
