Cresent Santa

I started this piece last week while waiting for my dd at choir practice. It is a Treasured Canvas Creation by Mill Hill. I bought it off e-bay a few years ago and thought he would make a great "carry with me" project. The background is basketweave. I wish I had thought to try a different background, but I did not. I will probably have him stitched for Christmas, just not finished... I have a few of those, don't you?

Hello, and welcome to the Christmas Design SAL. You're in, send me a picture and meet us in the stitching room in the week of January 1.

I like this Cresent Santa. basketweve is boring but when finished it will really make the Santa stand out, especially since he has some really nice stitches in him.

I also like your little point system there in the side bar...interesting......

Santa is darling, but not as cute as my Christmas card WHICH ARRIVED TODAY! What a surprise! It is really wonderful and I'm going to take a photo and use it as my photo for the time until Christmas.

Thank you so much, Beth. It is a lovely design and a very thoughtful gift. I appreciate it!

Jane, touched and a little teary eyed in CH
