{"product_id":"sparkle-shamrock","title":"Sparkle Shamrock Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe shamrock sits centre and its classic, three wide rounded leaves with a short straight stem. What makes this one different is the sparkle layer around it. Eight or nine small starburst shapes scattered at different distances from the leaves, some four-pointed, some six-pointed, sizes ranging from tiny pinpoints to about a third the size of a leaf. The whole thing reads like the shamrock just arrived in a puff of magic dust and Im suprised by how well it works on kids gear especially.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFive colours total. Kelly green fills the three leaves in satin, lighter mint green on the leaf vein lines, gold on the larger sparkle bursts, white on the smaller ones, and a pale yellow-green for the stem. The sparkle shapes use a mix of satin column for the thicker points and running stitch for the really fine ones so they dont get too heavy at smaller sizes. Stitch count runs from 9.8k at 2.5 inches up to 36k at 6.5 inches, which is genuinely complex for a design this compact.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you want help choosing a size just message me, Ive had customers this spring go back and forth between 3 and 4 inches and I can usually talk them through it fast. One customer ordered the 6.5-inch and stitched it onto a forest green sherpa hoodie and sent photos, it looked suprising good against the texture which I honestly didnt expect from a sparkle design on a napped surface. Generally though a light background is your safer bet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStitch on white, cream, pale lemon or soft grey for the gold and green to read cleanest. Use a topping on any terry or textured fabric so the fine sparkle points dont sink into the weave. Cutaway stabiliser is the right call on anything with stretch. Skip dark green or navy fabric, the leaves will disappear entirely.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDensity sits around 866 per square inch on the complex sections near the leaf fills. Run your test stitch on a spare piece of fabric before committing to the real thing. If the satin bleeds or your tension fights the sparkle accents send me a message and Ill walk you through it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46292919091350,"sku":null,"price":4.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/SparkleShamrockEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1773461866","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/sparkle-shamrock","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
