{"product_id":"valentine-dogs-heart-glasses","title":"Valentine Dogs with Heart Glasses Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eMocked up a four-dog Valentine group portrait and this one became my biggest seller of the season. Four breeds in a row: border collie on the far left with a tongue-out grin and heart balloon antennae headband, a small golden corgi puppy sitting front left wearing a tiny heart necklace, a little brown and grey pup front right with oversized bold red heart-shaped glasses on its face, and a fluffy golden retriever far right also tongue-out with its own heart antennae. Red heart prop tucked to the left, pink love letter envelope propped on the right. Its ridiculous in the best possible way, every dog person who sees it immediately knows exactly which breed is theirs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEleven colours, 1,156 stitches per square inch density, this is one of the heaviest designs Ive digitised. Each dog is built with directional fill stitching that follows the natural fur flow direction, so the border collie's black and white coat, the corgi's golden fur, and the retriever's fluffy chest all look like actual fur rather than flat blocks of colour. The glasses on the small centre dog are satin-stitched in deep red with a thin highlight thread to give them a lens-glint look. Ten sizes from 3.8 by 5.5 inches up to 7.26 by 10.5 inches, stitch count starts at 38,092 on the smallest and goes up to 88,149 on the largest, this is a big stitch investment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA customer messaged me in January asking if she could get this on a fleece blanket for her daughter who has all four breeds, literally, and she sent a photo after that was genuinely one of the nicest finishes Ive seen on a multi-colour dense design.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBest on medium to heavy cotton, fleece, or canvas. Use a firm cutaway stabiliser for all sizes, anything under medium weight will pucker badly under 88k stitches. Hoop tight, use a slow to medium speed on the dense fur sections, and float water-soluble topping on fleece or any fabric with a nap so the fine detail stitches sit on top of the fibres rather sinking. Skip thin quilting cotton on the large sizes, it wont hold the density without distorting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePick a neutral background: white, cream, light grey, or blush pink all let the eleven colours read without competing. Digitised in the digitising software and colour-sequenced to minimise jumps between dog fur tones before moving to the props. Message me if the fur fill direction on any of the dogs looks wrong for your thread type, some machines pull directional fills differently and Ill adjust the angle.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45827384705174,"sku":null,"price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/ValentineDogswithHeartGlassesMachineEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1762681669","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/valentine-dogs-heart-glasses","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
