{"product_id":"praying-mama","title":"Praying Mama Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eTwo words, two totally different letterforms, one design that somehow holds together really well. PRAYING sits across the top in wide bold block capitals, fairly chunky with a slight rounded quality to the corners so its not too stiff. Then below that theres a small open heart sitting right on the baseline, and underneath that mama comes in flowing lowercase script with that loose hand-lettered feel, long looping m and trailing a at the end.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe contrast between the top and bottom is the thing that makes it work. The top word is bold and solid, it anchors the eye, then the script below is airy and light, it softens what could otherwise feel too heavy. Single colour throughout, the machine doesnt stop once until its done, all the tonal contrast comes purely from stitch type and letter weight. Its surprisingly effective for a one-thread design.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSizes run from 2.2 inches wide on the small end climbing to 3.8 inches wide on the largest, heights go from 6 inches to just past 10 inches so this is tall rather than wide in proportion. Stitch count goes from 9,842 to 16,745 depending on size. The heart connector is small but its properly digitised, doesnt get muddy at the tighter sizes, which matters because thats the detail that ties the two halves together visually. One customer told me she had avoided faith-based designs for her shop because most of them looked too formal, this one changed her mind, she ordered the whole praying collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStable cotton or a light canvas works well for this. Iron a lightweight cutaway onto knit blanks before you hoop so the script letters stay crisp and dont gap in the loops. Black thread on white or cream fabric gives the sharpest read, but a warm taupe on natural linen looks beautiful in a softer way. Skip dark backgrounds unless you want to switch to an off-white or cream thread.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMessage me through the shop if a file format isnt in your download and Ill get it across to you right away.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46186820173974,"sku":null,"price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/PrayingMamaEmbroideryDesign.jpg?v=1768813441","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/praying-mama","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
