Another package

I added the bow to the first package, added a holly leaf button to his hat, and then stitched the second package that has holly leaves here and there.

The tree

I finished the tree and the trunk. I stitched the first package and am trying to decide it I like the red and white bow on the first package.

Today

I added a Beard and started the tree. I need to brush the beard but wanted to get the tree started before fluffing.

Personality

I finished the hat brim, did his hair and added his moustache. He is getting personality.

Moving on

Santa has a face and I have started the turkey work for the brim of his hat

All of it

I finished the background on the left so the background is finished.

One side

The background is done down the right side and a bit more of the left today.

And now

I added more background and the hat today.

Progress

After a bit of decision making, I have chosen the Giant T stitch using two strands of Gloriana and one of Accentuate for the background on Santa.

Santa

I am going to do a line drawn Santa on gray canvas, which is really hard to see, but I have started pulling threads.

Then

This is a design by Lynn Payette. It starts with 18 count canvas and then silk lame is ironed on and embellishments added. It was supposed to be a pin but I turned it into a small picture instead. The design is 1.25 x 3.

Finished

The letters are all done! This one goes in the finishing pile.

Framed and Gifted

Wonders of the Solar System is framed!

And it has been gifted! My great nephew loves it!

Letters

I have started the letters and finished the flower leaves using Soie Tissie Metals.

Framed!

Aldebaran has been framed and gifted! Another finish out of the pile.

There!

I finished the background....on to the fun stuff!
