Santa Calendar - January

I have decided i need just one more project.....hahahaha   so i am creating the Piecemakers Calendar for 2012...it is Santa.  who doesn't love Santa.

This is January's block. i am still awaiting bird buttons....but they are on their way....for his hand and the tree stump. and i haven't done his face yet .... that part is a bit scary. They are 14" blocks. i added a few things that were not on the pattern....snowflakes in the sky...an owl in the tree...a rabbit on the ground behind Santa...and a fox by the tree stump.



His beard is a cord that i unravelled...cute little tassel on his cap.


He has a leather cane. LOL   that fur is a bitch to stitch...just sayin'


Took 3 nights to make 7 trees. labor intensive


Tree stump is corduroy. snow is batting.




I think these are gonna be fun. next i am doing October. ... it only has a few pieces so i think it will be quicker. i am learning as i go. i gotta figure out how to do the moon.

Will show final pic when birds get attached....

Later
