Bring rotted fairytale menace to your Halloween stitching with this cartoon-style poison apple skull. The design turns a glossy apple into a skull-faced character, with hollow eye sockets, a sharp nose cavity and thick dripping glaze that gives it that properly spoiled look. Red, yellow and green are set off with black, white and brown details, so the face reads clearly while the highlight shine keeps it looking slick rather than flat. It suits anyone after Halloween embroidery that feels playful but still a little grim.
This would look especially good on black sweatshirts, canvas totes, denim jackets or the front of a children’s trick-or-treat bag where the bold shape can do the work. With 6 thread colours and a moderately dense build, it has enough detail to hold the skull expression and drips without becoming fussy. The range of 12 sizes from 3" to 10" makes it easy to use as a small chest motif or a larger statement piece on the back of a jacket.
