Pair of Ice Skates with Laces

About this design

This handsome embroidery design features a pair of ice skates propped together as if just taken off the rink. Worked in fill and outline stitches, the boots are stitched in soft dove grey with darker shading, laced eyelets running up the fronts and long black laces tied into loose loops and bows at the top. Beneath them, gently curved black blades with upturned toe picks and mounting plates complete the pair. The muted grey and black palette gives this motif a timeless vintage sporting look on a clean cream background, and the low color count keeps thread changes simple. Stitch it onto Christmas stockings, winter table runners, placemats, napkins, pillowcases and hoop wall art, or add it to skate bags, sports bags, tote bags, hoodies, sweatshirts, quilt blocks, hand towels, gift sacks and greeting card inserts. This nostalgic winter motif makes a great gift for figure skaters and hockey players, coaches, rink teams, Christmas and winter celebrations, birthdays, housewarmings and craft fair projects. Compatible with popular embroidery machine formats including DST, PES, EXP, JEF, VP3, HUS, XXX, PEC, and more.
