A Month of Santas continues - December 12

As we all know, stitchers are exceptional enablers.  And when I joined EGA and ANG, my stitching pace REALLY picked up.   For novelty stitches and fibers, needlepoint really excels. . . and so most of my smaller Santas are canvas work.

The pattern for this little Santa appeared in the predecessor to Cross Stitch and Needlework magazine. . . and is really tiny compared to the 2-foot high "big Santas" at between 3 and 4 inches tall.
