I absolutely loved the cowboy hat. I had a craft show coming up at a horse rescue farm. This looked like the perfect time to put it on…
Floral Cowboy Hat
My eagle turned out great, next time I need to use a better background color. I thought it would pop out more on a denim jacket. Great quality…

Only customers who have purchased this design can leave a review.
Q1: Do I need a special needle?
Yes, dear! For this Animated Friends embroidery design, a 75/11 or 80/12 universal needle is a good start. If you're working with delicate fabrics, opt for a smaller needle. For metallic threads, a specialized 80/12 or 90/14 metallic needle will prevent thread breaks.
Q2: What does "Light Density" mean?
It means the stitches in this machine embroidery pattern are not packed too tightly. This creates a softer, more flexible finish and allows the fabric color to show through slightly. This effect gives the design an artistic, "watercolor" or "sketch" appearance.
Q3: Can I download just a specific file format?
Yes! In your "Account Downloads" section, click "DOWNLOAD FORMAT" next to the design. Then, select your specific file format (e.g., .PES or .JEF) from the dropdown menu. The Animated Friends files are compatible with most machines.
Q4: How can I find a specific design in a large collection?
Use the Search Bar in your "Account Downloads" section. You can search by name or product code to quickly find Animated Friends or any other machine embroidery pattern you own.
Q5: What stabilizer should I use?
Pro Tip: For most stable fabrics, a medium-weight cut-away or tear-away stabilizer works best for this design. If you're using a "fuzzy" fabric, like fleece, remember to use a water-soluble topping to keep stitches from sinking into the pile.
