How much thread will I need?

Is this a patch or a finished item?

No. This is a digital embroidery design — a set of machine files you download. It is not a patch, a transfer, or any physical item, and nothing is posted to you. You will need an embroidery machine and a way to transfer the files to it.

The detail

Description

Show your colours with this bold campus Western Carolina Catamounts logo design, built around the strong WCU lettering and the catamount head in profile. The open mouth, fangs and whiskers give it the bite you want from a collegiate sports logo, while the purple, white and gold palette keeps the look unmistakably Western Carolina. It suits Catamounts supporters, students, alumni and anyone putting together smart game-day pieces with a clear team identity.

With three thread colours and a dense, heavily stitched finish, this design has the solid, filled-in look that works well on sturdier fabrics. It would sit confidently on a sweatshirt, varsity-style jacket, cap, tote bag or backpack panel, where the block letters and mascot profile can read cleanly at a glance. If you want a logo that looks firm and substantial rather than light and sketchy, this one has that crisp sportswear presence.
