Bring storybook mischief to your stitching with this whimsical design of two cartoon children running as they fly diamond-shaped kites. Their oversized spiky blue hair, round glasses, red one-piece outfits and black shoes give the scene a lively, instantly recognisable character. It suits anyone sewing for children, playful everyday wear or bright handmade gifts that need a bit more personality than a simple motif.
With 14 thread colours and a moderately dense fill, it has enough detail to keep the figures expressive while still reading clearly from a distance. It would look especially good on the back of a denim jacket, a child's hoodie, a canvas tote, a book bag or the front of a quilted cushion. The bold red, blue, pink, yellow and green accents stand out best on plain fabrics, where the kite strings and curly tails can keep their sense of movement.
