Add storybook sweetness to your sewing with this cute cartoon embroidery of a little brown-and-white dog peeping out of a teacup while a butterfly hovers nearby. The rounded cup, visible handle and tiny paws over the rim give it a cosy, tucked-in look, while the black facial details keep the expression clear and lively. With soft pink, purple, yellow, peach and red accents against white, brown and grey, it suits children’s projects, dog lovers and anyone who prefers their animal designs gentle rather than realistic.
This design would sit beautifully on a baby blanket, a sweatshirt, a child’s pyjama pocket, a bib, or the front of a small tote in cotton or stable knit. The 10-colour palette gives it plenty of charm without making the finish look busy, and the moderately dense stitching helps the cup and butterfly feel neatly filled and defined. It works especially well on plain, light-coloured fabrics where the soft shades and the dog’s face can be seen properly.
