Welcome Gnome - free project with video tip tutorial

Make This cute Welcome gnome

We stitched ours using what we call Lightning Applique'.  This is a simple stitch.  It corners well and can be used around curves so it is fast.  

He's little only 11" x 7".   So it's a great project to learn a new technique.


Down load the Gnome below.   

Thanks to the ladies at The Whole Country Caboodle for this cute pattern.


Need or want more applique' help?


Our Birdie Class also covers using decorative stitches for machine applique' and is on sale through the end of May.

Thanks for the visit!  Dr. Dan Francis from Francis Chiropractic here in Plymouth stopped in.  We talked about preventing and reducing pain while sewing.


He gave great explanations on the causes of neck and shoulder pain and tips on how to help it go away.


Here's the link to his website with videos on stretches and exercises to help.
