How many stitches and colours is this design?

64,129 stitches at the 7" size and 3 thread colours. There are 2 colour changes in the stitch order, so that is how many times you will swap thread.

How much thread will I need?

What stabiliser and fabric should I use?

This is a dense design at roughly 1,671 stitches per square inch. Cut-away stabiliser is the safe choice. Best on stable, heavier fabrics — cotton twill, denim, fleece, sweatshirting.

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

Bring roadside attitude to your stitching with this Harley-Davidson shield logo design, worked in the brand’s unmistakable black, orange and white. The classic badge shape, central bar and chunky MOTOR HARLEY-DAVIDSON COMPANY lettering give it the feel of a sewn club-style patch, making it an easy pick for riders, garage tinkerers and anyone building out motorbike-themed clothing. It suits pieces that want a strong, recognisable emblem rather than a fussy decorative motif.

Because it is a dense, heavily stitched design with just 3 thread colours, it has a solid, bold finish that reads well on sturdy fabrics. It looks especially at home on the back or chest of a denim jacket, a canvas work shirt, a heavy hoodie, a biker vest or a tool bag where the crisp double border can stand out cleanly. If you want a logo that holds its shape and gives plain gear a proper branded edge, this one does that neatly.
