Hi!  I just came across this resource at “Embroidery Just For You“ which gives you some swell animal embroidery designs and all for FREE on purchase of a minimum of 25 dollars worth goods!    Most of the free machine embroidery goodies are sized lower than 3 inches width by 3 inches height.  You could use these as small appliques which could be put on your favourite shirt as a logo.   The variety is amazing and I found a few unique pieces in the bargain.   The panda, camel, bobcat and the polar bear are a few of them.  

The expressions on some of the animals like the lion cub and tiger are cute.  The white rhino and the skunk needs more detailing which could not be done primarily due to the size of the free embroidery design.
