Bring dark gothic detail to a jacket, tote or wall hanging with this ornate owl design, perched on a branch beneath a crescent moon. The glowing red eyes, layered feathers and sweeping scrollwork give it a dramatic Halloween feel without losing the elegance of the bird itself. It suits stitchers who like their seasonal pieces a little moodier, and it works especially well on black, charcoal and deep red fabrics where the pale highlights and dark outline can stand out.
Because it uses just 2 thread colours and is stitched in an open, lightly worked style, it keeps a crisp decorative look without feeling heavy. That makes it a strong choice for sweatshirt backs, denim shirts, canvas bags, cushion covers or the front of a gothic-inspired apron. With 12 sizes available from 3 inch to 10 inch, you can use the same design as a small eerie accent or let the owl take centre stage.
