{"product_id":"smoking-skull","title":"Smoking Skull Embroidery Design, Gothic Machine Embroidery Pattern, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe skull has a cigarette clamped right between the teeth, and the smoke curls upward in those organic wispy lines that are honestly the hardest part to digitise well. Eye sockets have proper shadow shading inside em, not just black holes. The jawline detail and cheekbone structure give it that weight of a real illustration rather than a flat clipart skull.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNine colours, the skull itself is off-white with warm grey shadow fills, the ember on the cigarette tip has a little amber-orange glow, the smoke wisps are done in light grey thread. Stitch count starts at 31,726 for the 3 micro size, the large 7.5 inch version hits 84,481 stitches. Density is high at 1707, so this is a heavy-stitch design and budget machines may struggle on the dense sections, youll want a decent commercial-grade machine here honestly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNine sizes from 3.5 by 3.07 inches up to 7.5 by 6.6, Send me a note if you need a custom resize outside that range. halloween and biker events drive alot of orders here. A customer ordered a dozen hoodies with the large version last October, sent pics, and it looked sharp on black fleece, exactly the kind of bold result this deserves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse heavy cutaway stabiliser, this stitch density demands it. Stitch on denim, canvas, fleece or thick cotton. Avoid light fabrics entirely on the bigger sizes. Use a slow-to-medium machine speed on the dense shadow fill sections and dont rush it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSkip light or pastel base fabrics, they dont suit this design at all. Black, charcoal, navy, dark grey or deep burgundy are the colours that let this one breathe. Thats kinda the rule. Heres my pick, black fleece wins. Im a fan. Youll see why. Message me if youve got file loading issues or questions about the format.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46361793298582,"sku":null,"price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/SmokingSkullEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1777181904","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/smoking-skull","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
