Bring festive charm to your Christmas stitching with this cartoon gnome design, centred on an extra-long pointed hat and a soft, full beard. The little details make it feel lively: a round peach nose tucked under the brim, red mittens and boots, a candy cane in hand, and polka dots and wavy trim lines that keep the whole piece playful. With 15 thread colours, it suits makers who enjoy a more colourful holiday design rather than a quick outline motif.
This is a dense, heavily stitched design, so it shows up best on fabrics and blanks that can carry solid embroidery well, such as sweatshirts, Christmas stockings, tote bags, aprons and quilted cushions. The filled beard, bold hat and neat accessories give it enough presence for the front of a child’s jumper or the corner of a festive table runner. If you like cheerful seasonal embroidery with a clear cartoon look, this gnome has plenty of personality without becoming fussy.
