Bring bright cartoon charm to your stitching with this Joy-inspired character design, showing a smiling girl with short blue hair, a yellow dress and a confident hands-on-hips pose. The large eyes, simple facial detail and clear colour blocks give it an upbeat, recognisable look that will appeal to fans of animated film characters. It is a strong choice for children’s clothes, character-themed gifts and casual pieces that need a pop of cheerful colour.
With five thread colours and an open, lightly stitched style, it is well suited to fabrics where you want the design to sit neatly without becoming too heavy. It would look especially good on a denim jacket pocket, a sweatshirt, a canvas tote or the front of a pyjama top, where the blue and yellow can really stand out. Because the shapes are clean and the stitching is not overly dense, the finished design keeps a light, easy feel while still giving you that bold cartoon expression.
