    Default Hanging Gnome for Hubby
    I found this vintage Happy Hollow kit from a gal in a few valleys away from me on Ebay. I just thought it would be a kick to make up for hubby's office. He is pretty big 34" x 18" (I think) LOL! Anyway, here he is, hubby's pieced and quilted Gnome.

    Now, isn't this feller just too charming! I like that you can see his face and expression of his twinkling eyes. You chose a unique and clever pattern.

    So cute!

    Love that button nose and curly beard. I feel like there used to be series of these patterns, but don't remember what the others were.

    Thanks everyone. It means a lot to me that you stopped by to comment.
    I also made a snowman by this company a few years ago. He is made over a mailing tube.

    How fun. It is so nice to see something fun like the gnome or the snowman. Very charming.
