Some designs come together quickly, and some ask you to slow down and give them everything you’ve got. Western Icons is the second kind. Every design in this collection was hand digitized, stitch by stitch, to capture the kind of detail you’d expect from a vintage keepsake: the flowing mane of a palomino, the tooled leather on a saddle, the weathered steel of a lucky horseshoe, and the shaggy coat of a Texas longhorn.
Inside you’ll find 12 designs celebrating the classic symbols of the American West, including a blooming saguaro cactus, wild horses running under a starry sky, a longhorn, a ranch gate, a bronc rider, a lucky horseshoe, a palomino portrait, a covered wagon, cowboy boots, a revolver and holster, a coyote howling at the moon, and a western saddle. A few of the designs feature bandana-print fabric backgrounds that add an extra layer of texture and charm.
These designs make a perfect companion to the Western Pennants collection, but they shine just as brightly on their own. Stitch them directly onto a jacket, a denim shirt, a tote, or a pillow, or create them as patches and build a collection worth showing off. However you use them, the detail in every stitch is what makes them truly iconic.
