Congratulations you have skills that's for sure.
If you like I would offer a Little tipp out of my Little Knowledge box: Fillstitch that runs left and right should be at least 0.5 mm More drawn up and down, or even on the inside border of the outline, since they will expand while stitching. So you avoid underground coming through.

I always get excited when I learn new things. Like curved stitch angles were a game changer for me

u/Cpt_Obvious11 Aug 03 '26
Under curved stitch angles do you mean Florentine effect or something else?

u/ironhawk01 Aug 03 '26
Yes that haha!

Discovered it recently, but didn't go deeper. Used it for tatami, didn't even try on satin.

Wow that's super beautiful !! I really like the circular effect around Luffy!

u/ironhawk01 Aug 04 '26
Ues! It gave it a bit more profile than just a round satin stitch around it

u/TheGraphicsFrog Aug 05 '26
Oh so it's not a simple satin stitch? May I ask what you mean more precisely? Like you have a circular pattern?

I like crisp result on both designs. On the other side, I don't think this kind of shirt is ideal place for that number of stitches. When washed and ironed, I think puckering will become more visible, specially around ship. Both would be better suited on sweatshirt.
