The part I kept adjusting
The longest part to get right was the balance inside the bow shape. A music note detail can look crowded fast, especially when the design also has to read as a bow from across the room. I spent my time working on that relationship, so the notes feel like part of the ribbon instead of something dropped on top at the end.
This design is meant for a side bow look on a t-shirt, sweatshirt, or jeans. That matters.
Clothing shifts while it stitches, and applique adds another layer into the mix, so I wanted the design to stay clear through several size options without losing the bow outline. I included five sizes from 4 inches to 6 inches because placement changes a lot depending on the garment. A smaller shirt side needs a different scale than a roomy sweatshirt, and this set gives you those choices without asking you to guess.
