About this design

A snowman portrait, up close. The design shows the head and shoulders only, so the face is large: two coal eyes, a long carrot nose and a smile made of coal dots. On top sits a tall top hat, tilted just a little, with a sprig of two spiky holly leaves and three round berries tucked against the band.

A wide scarf wraps the neck, and its hanging end has three stripes and a fringe. Because the snowman fills the frame, the design has a bold presence on pillows, signs and sweatshirts.

Pieces and weeding

The solid file has 13 pieces and 9 cut-outs in the face, hat and scarf. The holly leaves and the three berries are small separate pieces, outlined by thin cut lines, so weed around them with care and keep everything on one sheet of transfer tape. It passes our cut checks from about 2.5 inches tall.

Color layers

  • Backing in navy: the face, the scarf stripes and the outlines around the hat, holly and scarf
  • Design in pale ice blue: the snowman, hat, holly and scarf

Projects

  • Throw pillow covers in iron-on vinyl.
  • Porch signs with a family name.
  • Sweatshirts with the snowman on the front.
  • Mugs in permanent vinyl.
  • Round ornaments with the face filling the circle.

Step by step: a snowman pillow cover

  1. Set the design to 11 inches tall for an 18-inch pillow cover and download the solid file.
  2. Mirror it and cut it from white iron-on vinyl.
  3. Weed the face, stripes and the small spaces around the holly.
  4. Press it onto a red or navy cover, centered and slightly high.
  5. Insert the pillow form once the vinyl has cooled.

Color ideas

  • White snowman with green holly and red berries, layered
  • Ice blue on navy, as shown
  • White on red for a classic Christmas pillow

Adding color to the holly

The holly is the one spot of Christmas in this winter design. Cut the whole snowman in white, then cut a second copy in green and red and swap in just the leaves and berries for a festive touch. In the color file, setting the backing to dark green outlines the holly in green as well.

Pairs well with

The Holly Top Hat is the hat on its own, and the Snowman Face is another big snowman face.
