Mr.Halls Has A Wobbly Home

Just a Fiction of my imagination:

When I was young, I had a doll gnome. I had proudly named him Mr.Halls. I lost him and never found him back. He lives in the forest in his tiny little wobbly home, but not to my knowledge.

 

When he first reached the forest, he roamed listlessly for a few days. Then he decided to build himself a home. First, he thought to make it with wood. Then he thought to use bricks and clay. But finally, he crocheted his own tiny home with bits and pieces he found on the way and lived happily ever after in his wobbly little home.

 

Description:

 

The Gnome home was first crocheted in pieces. The parts of the house were then lovingly sewed with a quilting needle. There are four circular windows on each side to make the rooms airy. There is no door to this house, just a small passage which leads directly to the welcoming home. The rooftop is made like a gnome hat. The base is satin cloth hand stitched to the crochet base. It's filled with polyfill and then given a quilted pattern.
