Bring gentle symbolism to a sewing project with this elegant jigsaw piece embroidery design. The shape is kept simple and clear, with a satin-stitched outline and a light zigzag fill that lets the puzzle-piece silhouette do the talking. Shown in warm red and pink tones, it suits ladies' clothing and softer, more thoughtful makes where you want a motif that feels neat rather than busy.
It would sit well on a sweatshirt, cardigan back, tote bag, cushion cover or quilt block, especially on cotton, sweatshirt fleece and other fabrics that benefit from an open, lightly stitched design. Because the stitching is not heavy, it adds interest without making the fabric feel stiff. The wide size range also gives you room to use it as a small accent or let a single piece stand alone as the focus of the project.
