Funny Chicken with Glasses Embroidery Design, Instant Download

Crossed wings, glasses perched on the beak, red polka-dot bow tie at the neck, and an expression that says Im judging ya right now. This chicken has alot going on and somehow shes both ridiculous and deeply sure of herself at the same time. The round black frames are oversized, like the kind a 1970s professor would wear, and ya cant stop looking at them.

15 colours and the feather fill texture is the standout detail here. Wilcom used short radial satin stitches on the breast and wing areas to give the feathers that overlapping look, almost like a real bird up close. The density on this design is genuinely high, 1586 stitches per square inch at the medium sizes, so the detail holds even on smaller sizes. The 3.51-inch version still reads as a full character from a foot away.

One of my most reordered designs. One customer back in september ran the small version on a fresh batch of farmhouse kitchen towels she was making for a country fair stall. She said the chicken got more comments than any other design on her table and she sold out before noon. Character designs land differently and this particular one seems to hit with farm-adjacent people every time.

Stitch this on cream or natural linen for best results. The chestnut brown feathers have warmth that reads well against natural canvas and raw cotton twill. Avoid red or orange base fabrics because the comb and bow details get lost in the background colour. Use cutaway stabiliser rather than tearaway since the feather texture fills are dense and theyll pull on lighter backings. Add water-soluble film on top when using jersey to keep the satin columns crisp. Text me a pic when shes done, Id love to see where she ends up.
