{"product_id":"valentine-butterfly-heart","title":"Butterfly Heart Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eSketched this one out as a pure butterfly version because I already had the butterfly-and-flowers heart and wanted something cleaner. Looks best on white cotton or cream canvas. Just red butterflies. No flowers, no filler shapes, no mixed elements. The heart form comes from how the butterflies cluster along the outer edge and the centre stays slightly more open so the silhouette reads clearly from a distance. All solid red, not a single colour change the whole way through.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach butterfly is a full satin-fill silhouette, wings closed symmetrically with a fine body line down the centre. The outer ring of butterflies sits denser, the ones toward the middle have a bit more room between them which creates visual depth, makes it look like theyre all flying inward. Density sits at 561 per square inch, biggest size tops out around 26k stitches. Thats on the heavier side so budget maybe 25-30 minutes on a standard home machine for the large.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIve been selling this alongside the flower version and they do quite different jobs. Customers who want something strictly romantic without the garden feel tend to go for this one. One customer texted me last valentines saying she stitched it on a white tee and her partner didnt realise it was handmade until she told him, which I thought was a pretty good sign. 5 sizes from 2.98 by 3.49 inches up to 6.38 by 7.5.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePick a pale background so the solid red stands out. White or cream cotton, ivory canvas, pale grey fleece. Avoid reds or pinks, the butterflies will blend into the background. Use a medium to firm cutaway stabiliser and hoop tight. Skip any stretchy knit unless youre floating on a cutaway because the density will distort a loose weave. Try a light topping on velvet if you want to keep the wing edges crisp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003emy main digitising tool digitised, Tajima DST base, all 8 formats included in the download. Text me through the shop contact if a file doesnt open and Ill check the colour stop order.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46059004526742,"sku":null,"price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/ButterflyHeartEmbroideryDesign.jpg?v=1767178427","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/valentine-butterfly-heart","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
