Santa Stitching

Today stitching will continue on the needlepoint Santa ornament. Some progress was made this past week.

Work has begun on his hat and beard, fur trim, and gift. As each section is completed, Santa is coming to life.

The past few days I was sidetracked by going to an estate sale and antique show. Coincidentally, I "found" other Santas that just had to come home with me. 😊

Another found treasurer was a hand stitched needlepoint eyeglass case which will hold my drug store "readers / magnifiers" nicely.  The lady made clever use of her leftover persain wool.  I don't have to make a case and the colorful scrappy fibers make it easy to find.

Therefore, today I will join Kathy and others at Slow Sunday Stitching to finish in time for Christmas gift giving.

Enjoy your Sunday,

Jill
