Add a storybook yawn to your next make with this sleepy Snow White dwarf design, shown with a long white beard, blue cap, half-closed eyes and one hand lifted to his mouth. The large nose, brown tunic and little brown shoes give him that instantly recognisable, dozy character, while the red, yellow and pink accents stop the palette feeling flat. It suits Disney-inspired sewing for children, collectors and anyone who likes their character embroidery a little gentler than bold, shouty motifs.
With nine thread colours and a dense, heavily stitched finish, this design has a solid, filled look that reads well on sweatshirts, quilt blocks, pyjama bags and lined tote bags. It works especially nicely on medium to heavier fabrics such as denim, cotton twill, canvas and stable sweatshirt fleece, where the beard detail and facial expression can really hold their shape. If you want a character piece that feels warm, sleepy and full of personality, this one has a lovely bedtime-story mood.
