About this design
Green Monster shows a small character with sage-green skin and a thick plum-coloured bowl of hair, walking along with a cheerful stride, eyes squeezed shut and mouth wide open in a big laugh. He wears a green tee, plum trousers and pale trainers. The outlines are bold and the style is clearly cartoon, giving a Halloween feel that is more funny than frightening.
At 50 × 70 mm it sits nicely on a child's tee-shirt, a pencil case, a tote bag or a sweatshirt pocket. On stretchy knits, use a cut-away stabiliser underneath and a water-soluble film on top so the machine embroidery keeps clean edges. A light cream or grey background makes the green and plum stand out.
How to stitch it
- Prepare 7 threads: sage green, plum, plum, sage green, white, pale pink, grey. The names give the closest shade; pick the one you like in your thread brand.
- Hoop the fabric in a 10 × 10 cm hoop with a stabiliser: tear-away for woven fabric (cotton, linen, canvas), cut-away for stretchy fabric (T-shirt, sweatshirt, bodysuit).
- Stitch the colours in this order: sage green → plum → plum → sage green → white → pale pink → plum → white → grey → sage green. The machine stops at each thread change (9 changes, 44 trims).
- Allow about 19 minutes at 700 stitches per minute, 9,314 stitches in all.
- For another size, open the design in the studio rather than enlarging it on the machine: the stitches are recalculated and the density stays right.
