Thanks for taking the time to do the tutorial Tom. With the movie out, I'm sure my daughter and nieces will be asking for some gnomes soon.

Tom, That is a well put together tutorial for the gnome. While in the blog I got a look at the SMALL HOLDER --that I like and can you see making one as I too love the wee ones. Thankyou.

Great tutorial, Tom. I took some screenshots of the video so I had a step-by-step document to work from. I messed up the body proportions while carving and turned the gnome into a wizard with a robe, but it still worked out. Thanks for sharing!

As is true with most of my whittlins - they are a testimony to my lack of planning. In this case, no plans, just started out whittlin. Once I get the first one done, it becomes the pattern for the next. Thanbks for lookin and askin.
