Bring seasonal colour to your stitching with this stylised appliqué bird, framed by flower blossoms and leaves and finished with a neatly defined eye and layered tail feathers. The mix of orange, red, beige, yellow, brown and purple gives it a warm, painterly look that suits autumn projects especially well. It is a lovely choice for anyone who likes bird motifs but wants something softer and more decorative than a realistic study.
Stitch it on quilt blocks, cushion fronts, tote bags or the back of a denim jacket where the appliqué shapes can really show off their contrast. With 8 thread colours and a moderately dense build, it has enough detail to look finished without turning heavy and stiff. The range of 12 sizes makes it easy to use the same design on everything from smaller accessories to larger statement panels.
