Owl Design
Since we’re coming up on the end of October, I found a interesting embroidery pattern for an evening owl in an oak tree. This was from an 1800’s embroidery transfer design catalog.
It’s pretty on it’s own, but I thought it would make a more interesting pattern with just the owl in the tree, so I cropped out the rising sun and water.
Once I did that, I wasn’t happy with the lines after cleaning it or it’s size. So I traced it with a sharpie. This made the lines clearer and easier to follow.
Just click on it, it will open in a new window and there you can right click to save it to print, then trace onto fabric and embroider.
The green Print Friendly button at the bottom of the post is also an option. You can choose what to print by clicking on the “Click to Delete” areas leaving only the image you’d like.
Stem Stitch
A stem stitch can be used to outline the design in one color or several. Also a satin stitch could be used to fill in the design.
Plus, there’s always the option to use it as a coloring page.
