I guess if I'm using one sided fabric I need to glue the cuff on the wrong side before turning it inside out, just not sure by how much. Thank you for this pattern! I love it!
Diana Ross, Wish I had read your comment before I attempted my first gnome. I was all kinds of confused, trying to figure out which side of the material to start with. And the seam on my hat looks very raggedy because, I guess, it was glued on the wrong side. Hopefully, I’ll be able to do better on my next attempt.
@@P_A_L I am so sorry it was confusing. I just pinned Diana's comment to the top of the page so that others will see it first. I hope that you do another one. I was new at videos when I did that one. Trying to be more clear. Hang in there with me. Have a great weekend.
@@PattiJGood, thanks, I did make another one. It came out better, but I have come to the conclusion that I’m not skilled enough with a glue gun to get tidy results. I ended up buying a handheld sewing machine and using that for the seam instead of the glue. Another issue I ran into was the hat looked too flat. I think I bought material that was too thin. So, on my third attempt, I put a little stuffing inside the hat before glueing the beard in place. That helped. I also think the pom poms I bought are a bit too big. 1 inch. You said “small pom poms”, but small is subjective. For anyone reading these comments, I recommend 3/4 inch if you can find them. The large pom pom doesn’t ruin it, though. I just have to be careful to glue them at least halfway under the hat. So, with a few tries, I think I’ve got it now. Thanks!
I just made one using a Newfoundland (Canada) tartan fabric & trimmed the hat with a fur yarn. It turned out great! I am going to make a few others using other tartans to gifts for friends & family. My daughter & daughter-in-law will do a craft afternoon next weekend and make some. My daughter has to make, bake or re-gift something for a college at work for Xmas party, so she is going to make her a couple of these ornaments! BTW… my sister & aunt were visiting this past week from Newfoundland. Each of us plus my daughter made your sock gnome! My daughter made her beard white but also gave him a little grey fu Manchu.
That's awesome Carolyn, I am so glad that ya'll are all making these. They are so quick and easy and that is exactly what we need this time of your. Happy Holidays
Every Thanksgiving I make ornaments with my 10 grandchildren. This is perfect for this year...I can have everything ready to assemble and moms can help with the hot glue part. I think I'll even add a name tag with the year. Thank you for such a cute simple craft!
Thank you so much for sharing your adorable gnomes. My adult children and I like to make a different craft every winter and you have given us so many ideas.
Love them all! They look so High End. Like the things sold at a sea side gift shop for High $$$…. Thank youvfor sharing your incredible talent. I would be proud to make for my home, and give as a special gift…. Trish frm WI

Patti J.Good Thanks for the adorable gnomes. I tried to find the patterns you mentioned but was not able to do so. Could someone either tell me where to find them or give me the measurements so I can draw my own? Thanks for the wonderful ideas!
