Add a bookish charm to children’s clothes and farm-themed makes with this cartoon chicken in side profile, complete with round glasses, raised brows and outstretched arms. The striped shirt, shorts and bright yellow legs give it a dressed-up, storybook feel rather than a plain barnyard look. It suits anyone sewing for children, classroom gifts or playful animal lovers who want a character with a bit more personality.
With 7 thread colours and an open, lightly stitched style, it gives good detail without feeling heavy on the fabric. It would sit especially well on T-shirts, sweatshirt fronts, cotton pyjamas, nursery bags or the pocket area of a denim pinafore. The clean cartoon shapes and range of sizes also make it easy to place on everything from small babywear accents to a larger feature on a tote or cushion cover.
