Cute Reindeer with Christmas Lights Embroidery Design, Instant Download

Standing reindeer, facing you square on, with a string of christmas lights looped through the antlers. Green wire, bulbs in yellow, orange, and red, the bulbs are small enough to look like actual bulbs rather than blobs. Red scarf knotted at the neck, red Rudolph nose, black button eyes, and that warm tan body with directional stitching giving the coat some texture. Theres 9 colours in this one and 9 colour thread changes to match, which sounds like alot but it goes fast because the sections are well organised.

Mapped in industry software at density 502. At 7.51 by 5.22 inches its 19,664 stitches. The smallest size at 3.51 by 2.44 inches runs 7,443 stitches. Five sizes. The directional body fill is the densest section so tape on a heavy cutaway for it. Hoop medium fleece or sweatshirt fabric nice and taut, and dont skip the underlay or the satin outlines can sink into fleece pile.

I get a steady stream of customers ordering this in november and december, this is one of those designs people come back to every christmas season. One customer this christmas asked me about scaling it down for a matching parent-and-child hoodie set, she wanted the 4-in build on the kids and the 6 inch on the adults. Thats exactly the right call. Skip white fabric for the tan body areas because the cream and off-white tones blend and you lose the body definition. Navy, dark green, or charcoal are the best base colours.

Great for fleece sweatshirts, cotton jerseys with stabiliser, and canvas tote bags. Try the 5-in build on a cream or oatmeal colour fleece for the warm vintage holiday look. Works on christmas stockings too at the mid sizes. Trim the jump stitches after the colour changes between light bulbs, there will be a few.
