HELLO! HELLO!

I’m Ange — quilt designer, teacher and professional fabric fondler behind GnomeAngel.

I help patchworkers build confidence with colour, print, fussy cutting and fabric placement so their quilts feel more like them and less like something they’re trying to get “right.”

I’ve been quilting for more than a decade, and I still think one of the best parts of patchwork is that there’s always something new to learn. I love bold prints, clever blocks, rainbows, gnomes, processed sugar and spending time with my family — and my faith is an important part of who I am too.

Come and sew on Norfolk Island with me and Quiet Play!

Kristy and I are heading back to Norfolk Island in July 2027 for another week of sewing, fabric play, good humour and creative adventure. Join the waitlist and you’ll be first to hear when the final retreat details are released.

Take your fussy cutting further.

Fussy Cutters Club is my guide to making fabric work harder — choosing motifs deliberately, creating your own templates and using fussy cutting to add humour, personality and surprise to your quilts.

With 14 projects covering everything from improv piecing to English Paper Piecing, it’s designed to help you look at the fabric already in your stash in a completely different way.

Everything must go – fabric is now $15 a metre.

I’m clearing the remaining fabric from the GnomeAngel shop to make room for the next chapter of the business.

Everything in the Fabric Clearance is $3.75 per 25cm / $15 per metre while stock lasts — so if something catches your eye, don’t leave it sitting in your cart too long.
