Bring wild intensity to your stitching with this realistic roaring leopard head, shown in profile with its mouth open, fangs bared and eye fixed forward. The spotted coat, fine whiskers and alert ear give it a lifelike feel, while the mix of gold, yellow, orange, black and cream is sharpened with touches of white, pink, red and grey. It suits anyone wanting a strong animal motif with real presence rather than a cartoon big cat.
Because it is a dense, heavily stitched nine-colour design, it works best on fabrics with enough body to support the detail, such as denim jackets, canvas totes, sweatshirt fleece or the back of a twill overshirt. The smaller sizes give you a focused, high-impact leopard head for a chest placement or bag front, while the larger ones let the shading, spots and teeth read properly on a jacket back or cushion panel. If you want embroidery that looks bold, textured and slightly untamed, this one has the bite for it.
