{"product_id":"raised-fist-unity","title":"Raised Fist Unity Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eThree thread changes in the build: the main fist body uses a heavy directional fill that runs at about 45 degrees to give the knuckles dimension, theres a lighter pass for the skin tone gradient on the fingers, and the third colour handles any text or outline work that frames the image. At 3.51 inches wide its 15,693 stitches and the 7.51-inch version is 32,352, so this is genuinely a heavy build. Density at 625 means youll want a sturdy cutaway backing and a needle that can handle that kind of coverage without bending.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTape a thick backer behind it and dont even think about tearaway for any size here. Ive run this on black canvas, dark navy denim, and black fleece and it reads powerfully on all three. On fleece, lay a water-soluble topping over the fill areas to keep the dense stitching from sinking into the pile. Use an 80\/12 needle at minimum, maybe even a 90\/14 on heavy canvas. Slow your machine to around 550 SPM for the dense fill sections, 600 is fine for the lighter accent passes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA customer who runs a small screen-printing shop asked about this one last october because she wanted to offer machine embroidery as an alternative to screen prints for protest and solidarity merch. She put the 6-inch run on the back panel of a black hoodie and said the coverage was so solid it looked almost screen-printed from a distance. Thats actually a good way to think about what high-density fills can do. Hoop your fabric taut, check your bobbin thread is well-tensioned, and run a test on a fabric scrap first.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWorks best on dark solid fabrics where the three colours really contrast. Pop it on a tote bag, jacket back, or cap front depending on which size fits your project. Skip light-coloured or loosely woven fabric because the heavy fill coverage can distort delicate weaves.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46269650403478,"sku":null,"price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/RaisedFistUnityEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1772447269","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/raised-fist-unity","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
