A row of short white tick-mark stitches runs along the top edge. Tiny black push-pin heads sit at intervals around the inside face of the arch, as if the whole thing is pinned up on a board. Inside the ruler ring sit two parallel yellow arcs that are actually pencils, with grey graphite tips at each end where they hit the base. Small red heart shapes sit in the space between those pencil arcs and the outer ruler, and two small green paper clip outlines hang on either side of the composition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt the very bottom centre, where the yellow arcs meet, sits the focal point: a red heart-shaped apple with a short stem and a single bright green leaf. Its the kind of detail that makes you look twice because it slots so neatly into the arch. Five colours total: red, yellow, grey, green and black, so its a manageable colour stop count despite how visually busy it looks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRun through Wilcom so density compensation works, at 640 stitches per square inch. Five sizes span 2.11 by 3 inches at 6,765 stitches up to 4.9 by 7 inches at 21,937. Thats what keeps the ruler tick marks and push pin shapes crisp rather than blobby even at the smallest size. A customer placed the 5-inch version on the front of a white canvas tote last August and said it was the most-commented bag at her school open evening.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhite, cream and light grey fabrics are where this one lives. The red and yellow are vivid enough that you dont want to compete with a dark background. Use a medium cutaway stabiliser on smooth cotton canvas, cotton drill and cotton poplin. Skip any red fabric or that red arch will blend right into the background and youll lose the silhouette. Float a water-soluble topping on any looser-weave linen so the tick marks dont sink into the threads. Hoop the fabric firmly before you start or those pin heads wont register cleanly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eText me if the tip registration drifts on your machine and Ill suggest tension settings.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46230688923798,"sku":null,"price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/PencilRainbowwithHeartAppleSchoolEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1770615130","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/pencil-rainbow-heart-apple-school","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
