Farmhouse Chicken Embroidery Design, Instant Download

Single-colour but thats not a weakness here, its the whole look. The chicken stands upright, head lifted, with that rounded farmhouse-bird silhouette people recognise from country market stalls. Across the body and wing the stitching isnt just a flat fill, theres feather texture built into the directional satin sections so the plumage reads as individual overlapping layers when light catches it. Built in Wilcom, density runs at 595 which means the coverage is solid even with one thread colour and the underlay keeps everything anchored before the satin goes down.

9 sizes, starting at 3.5 inches wide and going reaching 7.5 inches. Stitch counts open at 11,758 on the small end and hit 28,898 at the largest, so budget a proper session for the big sizes on heavy canvas or denim. A customer who stitches for a rural gift shop told me last autumn she puts the 5-inch run on linen aprons and cant keep them in stock, which I thought was impressive for a single-colour design honestly. Theres something about the farmhouse country look right now.

Press a thick cutaway backer under canvas or heavy linen before you hoop it and the density wont cause any fabric drag. Use tearaway under tighter-weave cotton aprons and the backing edges pull clean without disturbing the seam. Skip silk or charmeuse, the density at 595 is too heavy for delicate weaves. Pair with a simple block-font name below the bird on a kitchen apron if your customer wants it personalised. Drop me a message if you run into any file issues and Ill sort it out.
