Add gentle character to your stitching with this doctor gnome, shown in a tall pointed hat marked with a red cross, a long white beard, a round pink nose and a neatly placed stethoscope. The blue and light blue clothing gives it a calm, caring feel that suits children’s items, women’s accessories and handmade gifts for nurses, doctors or clinic staff. It reads clearly as a whimsical filled design, with the beard, shoes and little hands giving it a finished, storybook look.
This design works especially well on scrub tops, tote bags, apron fronts, children’s pyjamas and zip pouches where you want one friendly focal motif. With 12 thread colours and a moderately dense build, it has enough fill to look polished without losing the small details that make the gnome expressive. The clean blocks of blue, white, red and grey also stand out nicely on plain cotton, denim and stable sweatshirt fabric.
