Add delicate colour to your stitching with this line-art hummingbird hovering above a single large flower. The bird’s outstretched wings, fine beak and tiny eye are balanced by curved petals, visible stamens and a slender stem, giving the whole design a poised, airy feel. With 12 thread colours working through gold, yellow, green, light blue, brown, pink, magenta and white, it suits anyone who likes bird and botanical motifs with a softer, less crowded finish.
Because it is an open, lightly stitched design, it sits neatly on fabric without looking heavy, which makes it a strong choice for cotton shirts, linen blouses, tea towels and tote bags. The line-art style lets the shape of the hummingbird and bloom stay clear even on plain backgrounds, while the colour changes bring enough life to stop it feeling flat. Use it where you want a graceful focal point rather than a dense block of stitching, from a pocket area or cuff to the corner of a cushion cover or table runner.
