Santa Sampler...

Santas Of Fable And Fantasy

This sampler was featured in the Nov/Dec 1991 issue 
of 'Cross Stitch and Country Crafts' magazine.
(Still available on Amazon, Ebay, etc.)




The design measures approximately 12in. x 9.5in.
(When I stitched this design, I didn't document 
the stitch count or type of cloth.)

But, I was amazed at the unique and different Santas,
and made a note of them on the back of the frame.

Santa #1 Magical Wizard / Future
Santa #2 Russian
Santa #3 "Santa Claus" / America
"Sinterklass / Holland
Santa #4 "Father Christmas" / England
Santa #5 1960's / USA




At the bottom of this design, I stitched 
"Sewn for my children, 
with genuine love."

A little more than 6 weeks until Christmas !

Time to start a Christmas list...  ;)
