Colorful Chihuahua Embroidery Design, Instant Download

Drop everything bc this 1 is the loudest pup in my pet portrait range. Hes sat front on with 19 colours spread across his fur, ears bolt upright, tongue lolling out the side of his mouth in a cheeky lopsided grin. Fur reads like someone splashed neon paints over a tan dog: hot pink streaks across the chest, electric blue down the front leg, lime green flicks behind the ears, mustard yellow under the chin. Bold black ink outlines hold the whole thing together so the colours dont go murky on white cotton.

Closer look and the splatter detail is where the design shines. Each paint flick uses short directional satin runs that fan out from the body into 8 droplets sitting clear of the dog. Brown eyes are tiny tatami fills with white catchlights and the nose is a glossy satin button. Tan undercoat sits underneath all the neon flashes so where the colours thin out youve still got warm dog-fur underneath. Theres 19 thread changes but the layered fills make it read as 24 plus.

I get messages from pet parents every week asking for chihuahua designs and this 1 has been a top seller since last summer. One customer in austin stitched the 7 and a half inch version on the denim cropped jacket back for her chiweenies birthday party. People have been ordering it for vet clinic merch, pet photographer hoodies, dog walker tote bags, the works. A regular bought 6 last march for her sisters chihuahua rescue fundraiser shirts.

Best on a plain solid background fabric so the splatter has space to breathe. Pop it on white cotton, charcoal jersey, sage twill or a black canvas tote and the neon pink and lime really sing. Skip busy patterns or rainbow tie-dye fabric, it just turns to mush. Cream linen is gorgeous if youre after a softer vintage edge to the pop-art look.

9 sizes from 3.5 inches up to 7.5 wide. Stitch count climbs from 27.2k to 72.5k so the biggest version wants a heavy cutaway stabiliser, slow machine speed, and a sharp 75/11 needle for the satin fur edges. Tearaway works on canvas. Hoop tight bc 19 colour changes means alot of thread swaps and any drift shows up on the splatter dots. Ping me anytime if a colour stop reads off and Ill fix the file fast by morning, no probs.
