Bring gentle magic to children’s makes with this elegant unicorn head applique, framed by stars and drawn with a calm, smiling face. The white face, yellow horn, pink and purple swirled mane and turquoise star accents give it a bright fantasy look without feeling busy. It suits anyone sewing for a unicorn-loving child and works especially well when you want something cute but still neat and graceful.
Because it is an open, lightly stitched design with 7 thread colours, it keeps a softer, less heavy feel than a dense fill-heavy motif. Stitch it on sweatshirt fronts, quilted jackets, pyjama tops, book bags or cushion covers where the applique can show off the clean outline and star details. The airy stitching lets the fabric and applique materials do some of the visual work, which is especially effective on smooth cotton, fleece and other children’s fabrics.
