Dm me if the 5.9 inch cap is too small for your project, but honestly most gnome designs work better compact anyway. These are witch gnomes so theyve got the full oversized pointed hats that dwarf their lil bodies, long robes in autumn colours, and zero visible faces, which is kinda the whole gnome thing. The group composition has em clustered together at slightly different heights, giving it more of a handmade illustration feel than a clipart repeat.
12 colours is a proper colour change sequence and youll want to map your thread order before you start. Autumn tones run through the palette, so youre looking at black hats, purple and orange accents, rust and mustard robes, cream and sage details. embroidery software drove the underlay on this one, each section has directional prep stitching before the satin columns land, which is how you keep 12 colour transitions from looking muddy at boundaries. Density sits at 803 and the 35,534 stitch count at 5.9 inches reflects how much is going on across those robe folds and hat brims. Thats 10,100 at the smallest 1.97 inch version.
My customers tend to use it for autumn market totes and halloween home decor more than clothing, and I get that, the gnome cluster reads better as a scene than a shirt graphic. One customer stitched the 4-in detail on a cream linen tea towel set last fall and sold em at a craft fair. Use a heavy cutaway underneath, the multi-section density needs that base. Use topping on any pile fabric so the fine hat brim satin doesnt sink into it.
Pick an oatmeal or cream ground and let the 12 colours do the work. Skip dark backgrounds here, the warm autumn tones in the gnome robes dont read well without a light ground.

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.
