Meet Cathy Pings — The Gnome Lady

Every gnome in the shop is sewn by hand, one little guy at a time.

No factories, no mass production — just careful stitching, well-chosen fabrics and a lot of beards. You'll find her creations at Market Street Creatives, booth H2.

From fabric scraps to a little friend

How a Gnome Is Born

Every gnome takes the same sweet journey across the worktable — here's how it happens.

Hands marking a dotted pattern line on purple floral fabric with a pencil, pins and measuring tape on the table1

Measuring & Marking

It starts with a pile of fabric and a scribbled idea. Out come the pins, the pattern and the pencil.

Hands using orange-handled scissors to cut cream fabric along a marked line at the work table2

Cutting

Every body, hat and beard is cut out by hand — which is why no two gnomes are ever quite the same.

Hands attaching a fluffy white beard to a small purple gnome, wooden nose waiting nearby3

Beard & Nose

A fluffy white beard is fluffed into place and a little wooden nose finds its home.

Hands adding tiny flower and lace details to a gnome with a low-temperature glue gun4

Gluing & Finishing

A dab here, a stitch there — small details are added until he has a personality all his own.

The Hat

The final touch: the hat goes on, and suddenly this little gnome has a personality all its own.
