Bring quiet national colour to your stitching with this Canadian Maple Leaf Shadowed design, worked as a filled leaf in red, dark red and salmon pink. The shading gives the familiar maple leaf a softer, more dimensional look, while the vein lines and stem keep the shape crisp and recognisable. It suits anyone sewing for Canada Day outfits, travel keepsakes, school projects or gift items with a clear Canadian identity.
Because the stitching is open and lightly worked rather than heavy, it will sit more comfortably on everyday fabrics such as cotton sweatshirts, denim jackets, canvas totes and fleece tops. The simple three-colour palette is easy to pair with red, white, navy and black backgrounds without the design looking busy. With sizes ranging from small chest or sleeve placements up to larger back or cushion-front statements, it gives you plenty of flexibility without losing the leaf's clean outline.
