Add quiet character to a jacket, bag or blanket with this elegant Rhodesian Ridgeback head in side profile. The design focuses on the breed’s distinctive long muzzle, soft ear and alert eye, stitched in layered tan, brown, dark brown, black and grey for a lifelike look rather than a cartoon feel. It will especially appeal to Ridgeback owners, dog lovers and anyone sewing personalised gifts for children who are drawn to realistic animal portraits.
With nine thread colours and a dense, heavily stitched build, it has the presence to stand up well on sturdy fabrics such as denim, twill, canvas and sweatshirt fleece. It looks particularly smart on the chest of a gilet, the back of a dog-walking jacket, a tote bag, or the corner of a quilt or cushion where the profile can be seen clearly. The filled style gives the head a solid, polished finish, so the shading around the face and ear reads cleanly and makes the breed recognisable at a glance.
