Intro
Bring cheerful storybook charm to apparel and décor with this pink daisy garden gnome embroidery design. A striped pointed hat, flowing white beard, blooming daisies, lush grass, and a delicate butterfly create a whimsical spring scene filled with layered texture and playful color.
Designer’s Note
This design features a seated garden gnome wearing a pink-and-cream striped hat topped with a fluffy pom-pom. A long white and gray beard frames the peach nose and hands, while pink shoes, tall green grasses, white daisies with golden centers, and a pink butterfly complete the composition. Directional fill stitches shape the hat, beard, flowers, foliage, and butterfly wings, while fine black outlines and fifteen carefully sequenced color stops add definition throughout. Pink, cream, white, yellow, peach, green, gray, and black create a sweet garden palette with a magical springtime mood.
