Add storybook character to a robe, tunic or jacket with this stylised old man shown in profile, pipe in place and beard flowing below a green hat. The mix of white, green, teal, blue, purple, yellow, tan, brown and black gives him a lively, hand-drawn presence, while the white stars across the blue robe bring extra detail without making the design feel busy. With the name ELENEX stitched beneath the figure, it suits makers looking for something personal, slightly whimsical and a little more distinctive than a standard portrait motif.
Because it is an open, lightly stitched design, it will sit more comfortably on everyday fabrics where you want colour and definition without heavy coverage. Try it on a sweatshirt chest, the back of a cardigan, a craft apron or a fabric gift bag where the profile and lettering have room to read clearly. The 10-thread palette gives plenty of contrast between the beard, hat, robe and pipe, so the figure stays readable even at smaller sizes.
