Charlotte Hornets Flying Hornet Mascot Embroidery Design

The Charlotte Hornets full-character mascot in a dynamic diagonal flying pose: a compact deep royal blue-purple body with teal detail markings suggesting segmented insect anatomy, the large left wing spread wide in three distinct panels separated by gray outline structure with a white lower section, teal middle stripe, and purple upper fill, and the smaller right wing curving back as a counterbalance. Two curved gray antennae reach out past the wingspan from the top of the head and a gray stinger tapers to a sharp point below the body. All wing tips, antenna ends, and the stinger taper to precise points within the unified gray outline structure that frames the full silhouette. Best at 5 inches and above where the body detail markings and wing panel layering carry fully.

Eleven sizes from 2 to 7 inches wide. Minimum hoop required is 4x4 inches. Four thread colors: royal blue-purple, teal, white, and gray.

Sizes and Stitch Counts

Embroidery Formats Included

26 formats included, compatible with virtually every home and commercial embroidery machine currently in use.

Recommended Uses

Varsity and bomber jacket backs and fronts, hoodies and crewneck sweatshirts, premium caps, basketball jerseys, and tote bags. At 5 to 7 inches the wing panel layering, body detail markings, and antenna reach carry fully as a centerpiece placement. At 2.5 to 3 inches the character silhouette reads cleanly as a sleeve patch or bag side panel accent where full detail resolution is not required.

Stitching Tips

Use a firm cutaway stabilizer on all knit fabrics as the diagonal composition creates variable pull forces across the hoop area during stitching. For structured caps, use a firm cap form and consider a light water-soluble topping on textured surfaces to keep the wing panel fill lines lying flat. Thread color accuracy is critical on this design: the purple should be a true violet-leaning royal purple rather than blue-purple, and the teal should be bright cyan-teal rather than seafoam. If the two colors are too close in value the body detail markings lose definition, so run a test stitch on scrap fabric to verify color separation before committing to a finished piece, particularly at smaller sizes where the teal body markings are already compact.
