Add a wicked bite to Halloween makes with this poison-apple skull design, where a black skull face sits inside a red and green apple under a brown stem. The white highlight keeps the fruit glossy while the green slime and bottom drip push it firmly into spooky territory. It suits stitchers who want Halloween embroidery that feels playful rather than gory, with a bold cartoon appliqué-style look.
With 5 thread colours and moderately dense stitching, it has enough fill to look solid without losing the clean shapes that make the face readable. It would look especially good on a black sweatshirt, a trick-or-treat tote, a denim jacket back or the front of a cotton apron for October baking. The wide size range lets it work as a small chest motif or a larger centrepiece, and the strong red, green and black contrast shows up best on plain, darker fabrics.
