{"product_id":"praying-hands","title":"Praying Hands Embroidery Design, Religious Machine Embroidery Pattern, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is one of those designs that never really goes out of fashion. Praying hands, two colours, clean satin linework, no fuss. The outline passes are built with a satin stitch at 461 density, which keeps the definition sharp without the design getting too heavy for lighter fabric. Stitch range is 11,840 at 3.4 inches wide up to 25,154 at the full 7.27 inch size. Its a two-colour job, the skin fill and the outline, but you can run it single-colour aswell and it still reads perfectly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBest placement Ive found is on church tote bags and on the back panel of a clergy robe or choir shirt, use a cutaway stabiliser there no matter what, the density and scale need solid support. For smaller items like handkerchief edges or bookmark fabric panels at 3.4 inches, a medium tearaway works fine because the stitch count is low enough not to distort. The satin fill on the hands uses directional underlay, so it picks up light nicely when hooped on cotton sateen or silk blends. Avoid running this on heavy denim without topping film because the weave will swallow the finer outline details. Add topping film on any textured substrate and youll notice the definition improves immediately.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLast march I had a customer who runs a small church gift shop reach out and she send me message every few months to let me know this one keeps selling steadily, I reckon its her top repeater. She puts the 5 inch version on natural canvas totes and the 3.4 inch on linen bookmarks, both hold up well in terms of edge definition. Five sizes run from 3.4 to 7.27 inches wide. Message me if you cant open a format or want a specific version of the file and Ill sort it for you right away.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46315816747158,"sku":null,"price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/PrayingHandsEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1774681147","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/praying-hands","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
