Bring quiet elegance to your stitching with this line-art portrait of an Afro American woman, shown in profile with a full rounded afro, hoop earring and a graceful sweep through the neck and shoulders. The monochrome treatment keeps the focus on her expression and silhouette, while the sketch-like fill stitch adds softness so it feels drawn rather than heavy. It suits makers sewing for women who want a stylish, self-assured design with a modern portrait feel.
Because it uses a single thread colour, this design works especially well on plain fabrics where the outline can stand clear, from black or natural denim jackets to sweatshirt fleece, canvas totes and crisp shirt backs. The design is moderately dense, so it has enough body to look polished without losing the airy quality of the artwork. With 12 size options from 3 inch to 10 inch, it can be a subtle chest motif or a larger statement on the back of a jacket or the front of a cushion cover.
