About African Woman
African Woman earned its place here for one reason: it is a straight answer to african american, and straight answers are rarer in this pattern catalogue than you would think. Unreviewed so far — read that as untested rather than as a verdict. Plenty of people got here before us: 144 of them saved it.
Map and flag designs age badly if they carry a year. Pick the plain version for anything you plan to re-stitch. We would use it the way the listing hints — african embroidery — and that is also where we would start if you are trying it for the first time. Spend the minute on the preview at full size — it is where you find out whether african american was the description or the aspiration.
Filed as african american pes, african woman, afro woman and black embroidery. Tags are a rough instrument, but a consistent set like that usually means the file is what it claims. On this site it lives on the Around the World Embroidery Designs shelf, so it also turns up for people browsing around the world embroidery designs rather than searching for it by name. Nearby you will see around-the-world, which is where to go if this one is nearly right but not quite.

- Sew a quick version in cheap fabric first if the shape is new to you; the second one is always the one you keep.
