Unicorn Heart Eyelash Embroidery Design, Instant Download

Sketched this one out for the bunch of customers who kept asking for something kawaii-style but still wearable on adult projects, not just kids gear. The unicorn is basically a face-forward portrait: ya get the big closed lash eyes with long individual lash strokes, a central heart shape sitting where the nose would be, and a striped spiral horn poking up between two rounded ear shapes.

Six colours in total: black for all the outlines and lash detail, then 3 shades of pink and magenta for the horn, the heart, and the ear inners, plus a white underlay that keeps the lighter tones from going muddy against darker fabrics. professional digitising software carried the colour sequencing so the lash strokes lay in the right direction without any of that fuzzy look you get when directional stitching isnt set properly.

At density 357 its a lil lighter than most filled designs at this stitch count, which actually works in its favour on stretch fabrics like jersey and fleece. The smaller floating hearts scattered around the main face are done in a simple satin that stitches out quick without puckering. A customer ordered the petite 3.5 on a pale pink beanie last valentines and said it held its shape perfectly through the wash, no topping needed on the knit.

Use a medium tearaway on stable wovens, cutaway on anything with stretch. If youre stitching on very dark fabric, run a white topping over the blush areas so they dont disappear into the background. The lash detail is tight, so dont go below the small 3.5 minimum or the individual strokes start merging.

Pop it on a kids backpack front panel. Stitch on a makeup bag or pencil case for a fun kawaii gift. Use it on a white onesie for a baby shower present. Pair with a script name block on a tote for a personalised gift set. Reach me a note if you want advice on thread swaps for a specific colour scheme.
