Add jewel-toned drama to your stitching with this elegant abstract feather built around a striking jaguar-like eye. Wispy curved strands, spotted detailing and layered barbs give it movement, while the gold, turquoise, green, purple, magenta, red and yellow palette makes the whole motif feel vivid and watchful. It suits women’s garments especially well, and it also works for anyone drawn to symbolic, decorative embroidery with a slightly spiritual, art-piece look.
This is a dense, heavily stitched nine-colour design, so it has the presence to hold its own on the back of a denim jacket, a velvet cushion cover, a tote bag or the front of a tunic. The strong fill and rich colour changes help the eye motif stand out clearly instead of disappearing into the feather. For the best effect, use it where the fabric has enough body to support a detailed design and let those bright colours do the talking.
