Bring festive charm to Christmas stitching with this cartoon pug face in a bright Santa hat. The design centres on the dog’s round expression, with floppy ears, a neat black nose, soft wrinkles and a fluffy pom-pom that make it read unmistakably as a pug. It suits children’s makes especially well, but it also has plenty of appeal for anyone who likes dog-themed seasonal decor with a playful, friendly look.
With just four thread colours, the red, white and black palette keeps the finished design bold and easy to read on pyjamas, sweatshirts, stockings and Santa sacks. The stitching is dense and heavily worked, which gives the face and hat a solid, filled-in look rather than a sketchy outline. It shows up best on stable fabrics that can carry that fuller coverage cleanly, such as cotton twill, sweatshirt fleece, canvas and quilted Christmas accessories.
