Add festive flair to your stitching with this stylised Chinese dragon head, drawn with a bright turquoise face, red detailing, sharp white teeth and curved yellow horn shapes. The bold satin-stitch style gives the eye, snout and jaw a clean, graphic look that reads clearly from a distance while still showing plenty of character up close. It suits children’s clothing especially well, but it also works for anyone wanting a cheerful Chinese New Year motif that feels lively rather than fierce.
With 5 thread colours and a moderately dense build, it has enough detail to look polished without becoming visually fussy. Stitch it on sweatshirt fronts, bomber jackets, denim, tote bags or festive table linens where the black outlines and bright colours can stand out against plain fabric. Because the design is offered from small to large sizes, it can work as a neat chest motif or a more eye-catching centrepiece on the back of a jacket or a cushion cover.
