Gnomes are beloved in the garden, but you don’t have to be a green thumb to enjoy these darling characters. They’re also a delight on the home front, making great additions to pillowcases and other small projects like tea towels and refrigerator magnets. For a larger project, you can make this gnome quilt pattern free to create a snuggly throw or bed runner.
This adorable gnome quilt pattern uses a combination of simple patchwork units and applique shapes to create the lovable gardeners. The appliques are easily cut with the GO! Gnome Die, which comes with a free download of GO! Gnome Embroidery Designs for adding even more personality to the gnomes. You can use these embroidery designs for the gnome blocks, but you can also add them to other block pieces to add even more personality to your finished project.
The gnomes are arranged in an on-point layout that produces an exciting perspective for this sweet character. To assemble the quilt, you’ll begin with a single red and white gnome block. Next, you’ll sew another gnome and pine tree block together in the same order — with a sashing strip in between each of these two blocks. Finally, you’ll sew the remaining sashing strips to complete the quilt.
A dark red Hoffman hand-dye fabric sets off the different border layers in this gnome quilt. It also adds depth and dimension to the quilt. This quilt is great to make for Valentine’s Day or a special anniversary.
It’s also a wonderful way to show someone how much you care for them. You can even add a few of the gnome embroidered designs to this quilt and turn it into a personalized gift for any occasion.
A gnome block would also be an excellent choice for a baby quilt or toddler play mat. You can even add a sashing strip and borders to the block to increase its size and make it into a larger quilt.
This gnome quilt pattern is a fun way to use your scraps, and it’s easy enough that you can finish the project quickly. It’s perfect for beginners or experienced quilters alike!
To add a bit of flair to the quilt, you can use a solid-colored binding or a print that complements the gnome and pine tree blocks. To save time, you can sew the sashing and border strip together first before sewing the gnome and pine tree blocks. You’ll have your completed quilt in no time!
