Bring bold heritage to your stitching with this striking profile of a woman in side view, finished with a full afro built from rows of Caribbean flags. The large hoop earring and Africa-shaped detail give it a strong, graphic silhouette, while the stylised word beneath the portrait anchors the whole piece. It suits makers sewing for women who want culture, colour and identity to sit front and centre on what they wear.
Because it is a dense, heavily stitched 16-colour design, it has the best impact on stable fabrics that can carry solid coverage cleanly, such as denim jackets, canvas totes, sweatshirt fleece and sturdy cotton tees. The black and dark brown outlines keep the portrait crisp, while the red, blue, yellow, green, white and brighter accents in the hair do the visual work from a distance. Use it as a standout chest, back or bag panel where the shape can read clearly and the colour blocks have room to show.
