Bring farmyard drama to your stitching with this elegant rooster design, drawn in a realistic style with a bright comb, sharp beak and a proud, watchful eye. The long, curved tail feathers give it movement, while the layered neck hackles and fine leg detail keep the bird looking true to life. It suits anyone who wants a classic country motif with a bit more presence than a simple outline.
With 11 thread colours and dense stitching, it has the weight and coverage to stand up well on sturdier fabrics such as denim, canvas, twill and cotton drill. It would look particularly strong on a work apron, the back of a jacket, a tote bag or a set of kitchen towels where the black, red, orange and cream tones can really show. Because the fill is substantial, the finished bird reads as solid and polished rather than sketchy, making it a good choice when you want the embroidery to be the focal point.
