Ripped Tiger Claw Embroidery Design, Wildlife Patch, Instant Download

Four big claws sweep down the frame, the tips pointed and curved, the fur behind each claw stacked in golden amber fills. Above the claws the torn gap opens up and theres a partial portrait visible, one eye clearly readable in a cold green-grey, just enough that you know what it is but the composition is really about the claws hitting the surface. The rip edges are heavy black with jagged interior highlights and the whole thing has a real sense of downward force.

Seven colours: golden amber base fur, dark orange shadow layer, black for outlines and claw tips, a grey-white for the interior rip sheen, the green iris, deep black rip edges and a cream highlight running along each claw. The fur direction fills on the claw sections run diagonally downward to reinforce the strike direction, so the whole piece reads as motion instead of a static portrait. Density is 887 stitches per square inch, solidly heavy-fill territory, the claws especially need that saturation to hold the curved shapes at smaller sizes.

This one works differently to the rip-face design. It's wider than it is tall so it fits jacket chests, bag panels and wide cap fronts where a portrait-format piece would feel cramped. Last winter a customer ordered it for the back of a black nylon gym bag and said it drew more comments than anything else on their kit. Set up so the colour stops run clean, highlights and shadow layers come out in the right order.

Pick black, dark charcoal or deep navy for the ground, the amber fur pops hard against dark fabric. Skip light grounds unless you're running it in reverse colours. Use a medium-weight cutaway stabiliser and keep tension a little looser on the heavy amber fills so the fabric doesnt pucker under the claw base. Five sizes from 3 by 2.55 inches up to 7 by 5.95 inches. Dm if a claw outline comes out missing and Ill resend a corrected file.
