Bring gentle bedtime charm to a baby make with this cute cartoon astronaut, perched on a crescent moon and holding a little star wand. The design has a soft, storybook feel, with the bright yellow moon, white suit and blue details standing out cleanly against darker outlines and grey shading. It suits baby gifts especially well, whether you are stitching for a new arrival, a christening keepsake or something for a nursery with a moon-and-stars theme.
It would look lovely on a baby sleepsuit, bib, blanket, hooded towel or a small cushion for the nursery. The seven thread colours give it enough contrast to keep the helmet visor, boots and tiny moon craters clear, without making the design feel fussy. With its moderately dense stitching and wide choice of sizes, it works best on stable fabrics and projects where you want a neat, polished focal motif.
