My name is Amy, and I’m the owner and creative mind behind Needle and Gnome Quilt. While I’ve spent my career as a graphic artist and a 6th-grade teacher, my true passions have always been gnomes and quilting. The name for my business was inspired by my two favorite things. My journey began a few years ago when I started longarm quilting with a Pro-Stitcher, and I’ve been hooked on the craft ever since.
