Add road-ready Christmas character with this cartoon Santa charging along on a motorbike, complete with red hat, dark sunglasses, flowing white beard and a solid black bike picked out with grey metal details. It is a strong choice for anyone who likes festive makes with a bit more attitude than the usual holly-and-snowflake look, especially for bikers, motor enthusiasts and makers stitching for them. The red, white, black, green, gold and beige palette keeps the design recognisably Christmas while the rider-and-bike silhouette reads clearly at a glance.
Because it is a dense, heavily stitched nine-colour design, it suits stable fabrics that can carry plenty of detail, such as denim jackets, canvas totes, sweatshirt backs and sturdy Christmas stockings. The bold wheels, handlebars, mirrors and headlight give it a satisfying, filled-in look rather than a sparse sketchy finish. Use it where you want Santa to feel more like the star of the piece than a small seasonal extra, from a statement panel on outerwear to the front of a gift sack or festive cushion.
