December 2020 Block Lotto!

It's time for our last block lotto of 2020! Keep in mind that these will need to be dropped off at Catherine's house (email her for an address) before 5pm on our December meeting date.

For our lotto, we will be making super cute GNOME blocks!! Here's a free pattern from Sew Can She.

You can make the gnome with a white or off-white background. It should read as a solid- tone on tone is fine, but it shouldn't be a low-volume

The gnome base and hat can be red or aqua- you can swap too. We will only be swapping gnomes- not the trees. 

I think these are going to be SO cute! Can't wait to see what you all make!
