The Secret Ingredient Is Always Love Embroidery Design, Machine Embroidery Pattern, Instant Download

Send this kinda design to anyone who lives in the kitchen and theyll get it instantly. Bold black brush script spells out the secret ingredient is always love in three stacked rows, with a wooden rolling pin sitting bang across the middle holding the word INGREDIENT in white letters. Lil pink hand drawn hearts float around the edges and a few short black dashes flick out either side of the type for extra hand drawn energy.

The script is the star here so its built with directional satin laid along the curves of every letter, which keeps the strokes glossy and tight even on the chunky parts of the S and L. Rolling pin uses a sand brown satin fill with darker brown handles, and Ive realised the hearts read best when stitched in soft baby pink rather than red, the contrast just sits nicer against the heavy black type.

I get heaps of orders for em on aprons and tea towels, especially round mothers day and birthdays for anyone who hosts the family sunday lunch. Last november one customer ordered six aprons stitched up for her cooking class students, picked the 6 inch size and ran em on cream cotton. She said the class lost it when they realised theyd each got a custom one.

Stitch counts come in light for a quote design, only 12,309 on the smallest 3.38 inch hoop and 29,236 at the full 7.23 inch width. There are 6 thread changes and the densest patch is the long black script clocking around 539 sts per sq cm. Pop a cutaway stabiliser under your hoop because the heavy script will pull the fabric if your weave is too loose.

Stitch on cream, white, sage or oatmeal cotton, linen or a brushed canvas to very make the black type read clean. I dont recommend dark fabrics for this cos the rolling pin and hearts kinda just disappear. Send a quick chat note if your software refuses to recognise the file you got.
