Confident Standing Bear Embroidery Design, Instant Download

Heres a baby bear standing tall with both paws planted on his hips and a slight smug head-tilt. Tufts of fur sticking up around the ears. Round belly, stubby legs, the whole pose says he just won an argument and knows it. Drawn in that loose pencil-sketch style where you can still see the rough strokes everywhere.

Four colours layer across the body. Soft grey shades the belly and inside the ears, white runs across the chest patch and snout, off-white fills the lighter fur, and crisp black ink lines hold everything in shape. A faint ground-shadow under the feet gives him weight. Honestly the head-tilt sells the whole thing. Hes got attitude for a baby bear.

Stitch range goes from eleven thousand on the petite 3-in hoop up to 33k on the 7-in design. Density is moderate at around 707 spi. A camp-counsellor friend stitched this on six junior-cabin pillowcases last summer. Lil bear army across the table, ya know. I get messages from mums every spring asking which file works on jersey too.

Pop on natural muslin, ivory waffle, soft sage, or a pale buttercup yellow. Light grey works realy well too because the grey shading on the bear blends without disappearing. Skip dark navy or charcoal, the soft grey shading reads dirty against deep colours. Skip patterned cloth aswell. Its pose needs empty space around it or itll get lost.

Apply mid cutaway on woven cotton, denim, fleece or a sturdy canvas. On stretchy jersey switch to cutaway plus mesh underlay so the body lines wont distort. Hoop snug, slow your needle pace through the chest tatami fill. Ease back further on his face because tiny pupils need clean stops. Itll save you a thread break later.
