{"product_id":"realistic-eagle-head","title":"Realistic Eagle Head Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eMy mum stitched this realistic eagle head out first when I was testing sizes, and she rang me straight after to say it was the best bird design I had. I wasnt sure at first, its not an easy stitch, 9 colours and the feather layering takes some thread management, but in person the result is genuinely impressive. The neck feathers especially, they have this flowing quality in the long grey strokes that you dont usually see in machine work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNine colours, 8 changes: sandy buff for the upper crown, orange for the beak and accent patches, two browns for the mid-feather tones, dark charcoal for the deep shadowing, steel blue for the lower feathers, a lighter grey for the transition, and white for the face. The eye uses gold-toned thread against a darker surround. Stitch counts run from 17,936 at the small end up to 52,586 at 7.19 inches, bigger sizes take a long run but thats where the detail really pays off. Back it with a medium cutaway stabiliser, especially on outerwear fabric that has any give in it at all.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSlow the machine to about 600 SPM on the feather sections. The directional fill changes angle at every major feather group so your machine is turning frequently, slow and steady keeps it sharp. Use a 75\/11 sharp needle on denim or nylon shell, a 80\/12 on thick fleece or canvas. Theres only 26 trims in the whole design so trimming time is minimal even at max size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBest on bomber jackets, baseball caps, trucker hats, fishing shirts, and wildlife-themed tote bags. the 4-inch face on the front panel of a snapback cap in black with orange thread is a strong look. Avoid very open weave fabric, the fine directional fill on the face can lose sharpness if the threads sink into gaps.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46341419434134,"sku":null,"price":4.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/RealisticEagleHeadEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1776235658","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/realistic-eagle-head","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
