Felt Christmas Gnomes Kit - UK ONLY
Description
Learn how to make your own lovely Scandinavian Christmas Gnomes.
Everything you need apart from scissors and fabric adhesive will be in the box. You need basic sewing and embroidery skills - split stitch, blanket stitch and back stitch.
We use British wool felts and fleeces. Man made materials are used in the stuffing and some of the trims.
Kit contains all materials, pre felted and beaded components, and instructions. We can change colours of felt to your requirements.
Mr Nisse features a beaded snowflake and needle felted mistletoe embellishment.
Mrs Nisse has a heart and bead embellishment to the hat and Corriedale or Alpaca wool plaits.
Rudolf Nisse
His antlers and hand felted ears are a real show stealer and the beaded holly completes the design.
The gnomes are about 15 - 17cm tall when finished.
All of the gnomes are shaped so that they stand well without being weighted and the hats are wired so that you can arrange to suit your taste.
These are not toys, so please keep them away from young children and pets as they have small components and wire within the body, hat or antlers. Please keep them away from candles and sources of heat.
The kit is packed in a strong white box wrapped in acid free tissue and trimmed with a Scandinavian style ribbon and label.
These felt sewing kits make lovely presents and are a wonderful addition to your Christmas decor or even as a table centre piece.

Reviews
This is a great fabric package which includes lace, ribbons and embellishments. Well packaged and arrived quickly. Looking forward to starting a new project with my items.
Lovely fabrics good quality and coordinating colours love it 😊
This is a lovely kit with a good selection of fabrics,ribbons and embellishments to reflect the Lakeland Hues theme.
both my friend who I had a kit sent to, and myself who ordered the kits, were very pleased wth the kit and contents, all well packaged and a lovely seletion of fabrics etc to create with. a nice unusual kit.
This kit caught my eye when I saw it on Craft Courses, it looked so pretty and fresh colours. I received mine very quickly and it is so nicely packaged and a good deal of fabric and other embellishments too. I set great store by how things I buy are packaged up and this was really good.
I since ordered another kit to go direct to a friend and like with me she received it very quickly and is delighted with it.
Thank you Maire for such a lovely kit
This kit arrived earlier this week and is nicely packaged and has everything needed to make the item.
The instructions look clear and the end product looks like it will be beautiful (depending on my skill!).
The only reason I didn't give this 'excellent' is due to the fact that there's no print out for the stitches required, I'm going to look them up on YouTube as I think I know what I'm doing, but a simple print out showing how to do these stitches would be useful for others.
Overall, I'd buy this kit again, or another kit from the same maker.
Response from Maire Curtis Lakeland Studio:
Hello Louise,Thank you for your feedback and I am glad you are pleased with your kit.
I have noted your comment about the stitch guide but we do state that prior knowledge of the stitches is required so I will attempt to make this clearer on the item description.
Many thanks and happy stitching.
Maire.
Bought as a gift very pleased with everything
