Bring faithful detail to your stitching with this realistic dog face portrait, complete with floppy ears, bright eyes, a soft muzzle and an open mouth with the tongue just showing. The mix of black, browns, tan, white, grey and touches of pink and mauve gives the face natural depth, while small gold highlights lift the expression. It is a strong choice for dog lovers who want a recognisable pet look rather than a cartoon style.
Because this is a dense, heavily stitched design with 16 thread colours, it suits stable fabrics that can support the shading and texture well, such as sweatshirts, denim jackets, canvas totes and cushion covers. The broad size range lets you use it as a smaller accent on a pet blanket or grooming bag, or make it the main feature on the back of a jacket. Stitched out, it should read as a full, detailed portrait with solid coverage and a soft, friendly face.
