This unfinished project has caused no end of trouble. Not the project itself, which is done with needle punch embroidery (a quick way to smile according to the French on the packaging) and allows me to stab something repeatedly with a sharp object. That part is great. I haven't even stabbed my leg yet and only have to finish that one mushroom.The problem is the design, which I stole from someplace online. The free pattern listed itself as being a gnome. This is not how my beloved sees gnomes. I can see his point, but I know of gnomes like this. Then, we fight. So it is a battle ground gnome/man's land in my house. My sweetheart is such a troublemaker. Don't get him started on Santa's not-really-elves, either.
I think it's going to be a little pillow when it is done.

That is a garden gnome. He wants an illusionist gnome. ;)
I sort of agree about the Santa thing. They always looked more like dwarves to me.
*ducks and hides*
I think the problem is one can not see the beard...and if it is a garden gnome doesn't he need to wear red? :)
The dwarf thing is his point too. And I was using thread scraps from another project so I didn't have enough red. I know, blue makes really bad camouflage.
