Cat Eyes Embroidery Design, Cute Feline Machine Embroidery Pattern, Instant Download

Started this one last january after a customer kept asking for a cat design that wasnt the whole face, just the eyes. Its become one of those designs I sell steadily without alot of fuss. Ten colours total, mostly greens in the iris layering, which is the tricky bit, each layer uses a directional fill that shifts angle slightly to mimic how a real iris catches light. Density is 135, which means the iris satin sits solid without going boardy on medium-weight fabrics.

Eight sizes, 3.5 7.5 max range wide, but the height only runs 2.59 to 5.55 inches, so its a wide flat design. Thats actually useful, it fits on hat panels, sleeve hems, trouser leg cuffs, tote bag handles, places where a taller design would get awkward. Add a topping on knit fabrics or the fine iris detail can disappear into the surface. Use a cutaway stabiliser whenever stitching on stretchy material, the underlay needs something firm to register the thin eyelash satin columns cleanly.

Stitch counts run from 16,291 at the smallest to 36,299 at the largest, so runtimes are reasonable even for a 10-colour job. Pick a tearaway on stable woven denim or canvas, it presses off cleanly once the hoop is released. Dont rush the iris section if your machine slows on dense layers, let it run at its own pace. Email me if a size runs out of registration and I can advise on re-hooping technique for your specific machine.
