This gnome is celebrating hard. Wide floppy hat, big fluffy beard, and hes holding a banner that basically says the whole party is his idea. The design comes in 4 sizes from 4.51 inches wide up to the full 7.51 inch version, and honestly the bigger sizes are where this one shines because the banner text reads properly at 6 inches and up.
Eight colours total, which is a bunch to load but each one plays a different role. The hat gets that classic kelly green, the beard is a cream or off-white, the body uses a warm tan, and then gold accents on the hat band and trim. Stitch count runs from 31,912 on the smallest up to 56,702 on the large, so its definitely the heavier end of complexity. A proper cutaway stabiliser is non-negotiable here, the high density tatami fill on the body panels needs solid backing or youll get shifting on the hoop.
Last St. Patricks Day I sold alot of these to people doing custom bar aprons and restaurant staff shirts. One customer ordered 3 different gnome designs to mix on a set of four matching shirts for a family pub crawl. The lil gnome energy on a navy or white shirt just works for that kind of group project, and Im always glad when people think to layer different designs in a set like that.
Best on mid-weight cotton, denim, twill, or canvas. Try the 5 to 6 inch range for sweatshirts and hoodies, the 7.5 inch for tote bags or larger pillow covers. The stabiliser you use matters here, go thick cutaway, this design earns it.

About the artist
Reyazul Masud Riham, hand-drawing every design on this site
Every design on Re Embroidery is hand-digitized by one person. Each file gets sketched, color-matched, and stitch-tested on real fabric before it earns a place in the shop. No team. No auto-conversion from images. Just slow, deliberate work, sometimes three or four days per design.
That's the joy I work for.
The hard part is finding my designs re-uploaded and resold elsewhere. So when you buy from Re Embroidery, you're paying one real person for the file you're about to download. That matters.
