This page contains images\/instructions on how to sew and finish the original gnome pattern.\u00a0 The original post was done a long time ago and one of the first patterns I ever created!. It is still proving to be very popular and looking back through the post there is not the full image tutorial instructions that I now include in all my patterns, this page has been set up with this information.<\/p>\r\n

The pattern is still available here<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n

Fold and stuff lightly.
