{"product_id":"smiling-bee","title":"Cute Smiling Bee Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eHeres the smiling bee and shes basically the chubbiest happiest lil bug youll meet today. Round honey-yellow body, three thick black stripes wrapping across, big shiny black eyes with white sparkle dots, and a tiny grinning mouth right under em. Two soft pink cheek blushes give her that proper kawaii sticker feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWings are done in pale grey with white highlight strokes so they read see-through against the body. Tiny dangly legs stick out underneath. Theres also a curly antenna pair on top that bounce slightly off-centre, kinda like she just landed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTen thread colours total which sounds alot but each one swaps fast, no long sequences. The body uses tatami fill running with a soft yellow-to-honey gradient, the stripes go satin column for crisp edges, the eyes use small satin ovals with a tiny white highlight punch on top. Density is 707 stitches per inch, runs 15,407 stitches at the smallest 3.37-inch size up to 38,327 on the biggest at 7.22 wide.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you stitch baby and toddler merch this design just delivers. I get messages from preschool moms about this one almost weekly. One mum ordered the 5-inch size for her daughters spring birthday party shirts last april, and the bee popped right off pale yellow cotton. Said her kid wouldnt take the shirt off for a week. Suprised me how attached lil ones get to chubby cartoon bees. Cute wins.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStitch on pale yellow, white, soft pink or sage fabric for cleanest read. Skip dark or busy patterned fabric, the wing greys and pink cheeks will lose against it. Use polymesh cutaway on stretchy baby knits, medium cutaway on woven cotton. Hoop tight, the gradient body needs steady tension to read round.
