Bring gentle friendship to children’s stitching with this cartoon bear and donkey cuddled close in a full, affectionate hug. The bear’s yellow face and red shirt sit beside the donkey’s blue body, with a neat pink bow at the tail adding a small, playful detail that stops it feeling flat. It is an easy choice for anyone sewing for siblings, best friends or little ones who love soft, storybook-style characters.
Because it is a dense, heavily stitched design with 13 thread colours, it has a solid, filled-in look that stands out well on sweatshirts, quilt panels, pyjama bags and nursery cushions. The bold outlines and clear colour blocks suit stable fabrics especially well, including cotton, denim, canvas and sweatshirt fleece. With 12 size options from 3" to 10", it works equally nicely as a small chest motif or a larger feature on the back of a jacket or the front of a tote.
