Bring playful charm to baby makes with Baby Silvestre, a cartoon kitten cuddled up to a football in a bold black, white and red palette. The large red nose, white muzzle, little diaper and curling tail give it a mischievous, babyish look that reads clearly at a glance. It suits parents sewing for a football-loving family, or anyone wanting a nursery design that feels characterful rather than fussy.
Because the stitching is open and lightly worked, it sits well on softer items where you want the fabric to stay flexible. Try it on bibs, baby grows, cotton rompers, small blankets or the front of a sweatshirt for an older child who still likes cartoon cats. With just three thread colours and a wide size range, it is easy to keep crisp on simple fabrics while still making the cat and ball stand out.
