Oh....this guy is just too cute! He is my own pattern and design. I had a blast making him and would love to make you one. Santa has been through my three step prim process. I then gave him a stained muslin beard and hair. His nose is needle-sculptured and he has button eyes. His suit is made from red striped ticking that is trimmed with muslin. He has a mustard colored star haning from his hat. Santa�??s gloves are painted. He �??hugs�?? most trees with his bendable arms. If you would like your Santa just stained and not black, please put those instructions in the comment section of the order form.
