This alligator #embroidery was inspired by a little gator I see in the retention pond of my neighborhood almost every week. I have fondly started calling him Gary the Gator. You can bring Gary home to your hoop with the digital pattern available in my Etsy shop! https://evergreensunstudios.etsy.com/listing/4338132385/gary-the-gator-hand-embroidery-pattern
