Needle Punch Santa Doll


Happy November everybody! Can you believe Christmas is right around the corner???? I am soooooo not ready, lol! We are finally getting fall-like weather here in Florida, well Fall for Florida anyway. It's been in the 70's during the day and 60's at night ~ a great big welcome relief from the heat! My critters are really enjoying the cool down.

Just thought I'd share a picture of my needle punch Santa doll I just completed. He's backed by some nice thick wool and I've lightly filled him with clean sawdust for an old timey feel. And I just drew up another rug to hook on my foundation. A rabbit ~ although I should be doing Holiday things ~ I just got the notion to do a rabbit!

Have a great rest of the weekend folks! I'm having family over for supper tomorrow and because of the cool down, I'm making a big pot of corn chowder and some biscuits, an apple pie and cheese cake.

Big Smiles ~ Marte

I love your Needle Punch Santa! I've only dabbled in Needle Punch, but would love to do him. Is he a pattern for sale?
