{"product_id":"sewing-is-my-therapy","title":"Sewing Is My Therapy Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eSewing gnome on the left side of the design, holding a proper oversized sewing needle upright, blue cotton hat with a salmon-pink lining at the brim, thread looping off the eye in a wide arc up over his hat and swooping back down. The beard is a wide grey-brown mass that covers everything below the nose, same classic gnome proportion where the beard is basically the whole body.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo his right, a red-orange dashed stitch line forms a simple heart outline. Looks like someone literally stitched the heart in a running stitch the way youd baste a seam. Then the text \"Sewing is my therapy\" fills the upper right in bold cursive with a drop shadow behind each letter so it pops off the fabric. The whole composition sits square so it works as a chest placement or a bag panel without reshaping anything.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEleven colours, I wont pretend thats quick to setup, but each stop is doing something distinct so none of them are wasted. The biggest size runs to just over 35k stitches at 6.62 by 7.51 inches. Slow the machine down 20 percent on the lettering section, satin lettering at full tilt can wobble on the upstroke. Use a medium cutaway under knit and fleece, firm tearaway on stable woven cotton. Float a topping layer on any fleece that has a pile so the needle text stays crisp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShoppers keep finding this one all the time, mostly from sewists who want it on their studio apron or project bag or as a gift for a quilter. Last month a customer ordered it specifically for a birthday sweatshirt and said the recipient burst out laughing when she opened it because it was exactly her. Thats the kind of reaction its designed to get. Message me about anything after download, stitch issues included, and Ill fix the bobbin draw.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46269467361430,"sku":null,"price":4.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/SewingIsMyTherapyEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1772433388","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/sewing-is-my-therapy","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
