Bring ornamental romance to a wedding project with this embracing angel couple, stitched in an elegant sketch style. Two angels fold into each other beneath softly detailed wings, with flowing robes, curly hair and fine feather work picked out in gold, grey, white and black. It suits couples making heirloom pieces, anniversary gifts or ceremony details that need a gentle, symbolic image rather than a sugary one.
Because the design is dense and heavily stitched, it gives a rich, filled look that stands up well on sturdier fabrics such as linen, twill, velvet and quality cotton. It works especially well on ring-bearer cushions, wedding memory quilts, robe backs, decorative panels or the corner of a keepsake table runner. With 5 thread colours and a hand-drawn ornamental feel, it reads clearly at different scales while keeping the embrace, wings and robe lines distinct.
