I made this Primitive little Santa from muslin that I've painted and stained to a grungy finish. His beard, belt, buckle and cuffs are needle felted into place using dyed wool. His face is painted and sanded for an olde, worn look.
Santa is 15 inches tall. His legs and arms have been hand stitched to his body. He's firmly stuffed and sits firmly on his own. I wired a few wild grape vine sticks to his hand and attached moss and a little ginger bread man. I used cloves for his eyes and buttons.
I used a pattern designed by Victoria of Kentucky Primitives.
Measuring 3 1/2" tall x 4 1/2 " long, I stained this old, leather baby shoe to enhance the signs of wear. I've packed it full of stuffing and made it into a pin keep. The fabric is an off-white background with a floral print in mustard and green. It's securely hand-stitched to the shoe using strong button thread. You can use it as a pin keep or display it along with your favorite antiques, as the display shoes.1/1/09
