This fun quilt is so charming draped on the back of your couch, the end of your bed, or hanging on a ladder or wall in your home!! You’ll be smitten with it! The gnomes are created using a variety of red prints, along with white fabric for the beard and peach fabric for the nose.

For the background I used a variety of buttery cream prints to show off the gnomes and the balsam trees. I used brown fabric for the binding strip.
