{"product_id":"santa-claus-face","title":"Cute Santa Claus Face Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eMocked up this Santa face close-up because I wanted something that was kinda just the face, no full body, no sleigh, no reindeer, just Santa's mug filling the whole hoop. The beard is in a fluffy cream satin that fans out from the chin up to the cheeks, and the hat is a proper scarlet with a white cuff and a little pom at the top right corner. The eyes are small and round with a slight squint, gonna give it that jolly look without going cartoonish. Nine colours in total, peach for the face skin tone, a darker blush for the cheeks, black for the eyes and pupils, and then the hat and beard tones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA technically demanding file. Stitch counts run from 40,693 at 4.51 inches all the way to 77,067 at the largest 7.51-inch size, which is a lot of thread going down. The file was digitised through professional tools, and the density sits at 1,458 which is high, thats deliberate because the beard needs that fluffiness to read correctly and you wont get it at a lower density. The digitising on the beard used satin columns running in different angles so theyre picking up light differently, thats what makes it look thick rather than flat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA customer ordered the 7-inch size last christmas for a navy onesie and sent images a week later. Im happy with how the peach face tone sat against the dark navy, it contrasted better than I expected. The beard seriously popped on the dark base. Run it on any dark-coloured garment and youll get that same contrast. Navy, forest green, charcoal, all work well.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse cutaway stabiliser, no question, this is too heavy for tearaway. Add a water-soluble topping on the beard area specifically because the satin fill benefits from a smooth run surface. Pair it with a fleece or jersey base for kids garments, the softness of those fabrics suits the rounded face shape. Best to stitch the beard last in your colour sequence so it sits on top of the face fill.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46245029052566,"sku":null,"price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/CuteSantaClausFaceEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1771041098","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/santa-claus-face","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
