Bring festive gothic detail to your Halloween stitching with this decorative sugar skull design, styled in a Day of the Dead floral tradition. The skull is built from bold black outlines and white fill, then lifted with a red rose at the forehead, flower-shaped eye sockets, leafy curls, cheek dots, defined teeth and a neat diamond at the chin. With six thread colours working through gold, red, blue and purple accents, it suits anyone who wants a sugar skull that feels ornate and readable rather than busy.
Because it is a dense, heavily stitched design, it has the kind of solid coverage that stands up well on sturdy fabrics such as denim jackets, canvas totes, sweatshirt fleece and black cotton panels. It looks especially striking as a single focal piece on the back of a jacket, the front of a cushion cover, or centred on a Halloween tote where the contrast and colour can do the work. Offered in 12 sizes from 3 inch to 10 inch, it gives you the same decorative impact whether you want a small accent or a large statement piece.
