Add retro cool to your stitching with this teddy bear design styled in a James Dean-inspired 1950s look. The bear stands front-facing in a bright red jacket over a white shirt, with blue rolled-cuff trousers and brown shoes, finished with bold NKE lettering and a swoosh for a sporty twist. It is a strong choice for anyone who likes cartoon character embroidery with a more dressed, fashion-led feel rather than a babyish teddy bear.
This design would look especially good on the back or chest of a denim jacket, on heavyweight hoodies, sweatshirt fleece, tote bags or the leg of joggers. The clear colour blocking in the jacket, trousers and shoes helps the figure read well on mid-tone fabrics such as stone, grey, navy and black. With 10 thread colours and a moderately dense build, it has enough detail to keep the outfit crisp without becoming visually fussy.
