Add gentle charm to children’s clothing and keepsakes with this elegant cockatiel embroidery design. The little bird is drawn in a cute cartoon style, with a soft yellow face, grey body, orange cheeks and a tidy crest that gives it plenty of personality without looking fussy. It suits anyone sewing for bird-loving children, and it also works well for women’s casual pieces where you want something light, friendly and a little different.
With five thread colours, the look stays clean and readable, and the moderately dense stitching gives the bird a solid, well-filled finish. Stitch it on sweatshirt fleece, cotton pyjamas, bibs, quilt blocks or a nursery cushion, where the rounded cheeks, beak and tail feathers will show up clearly. The 12-size range makes it easy to use as a small accent on a pocket or sleeve, or as a more noticeable feature on the front of a top or a tote bag.
