My rotation interlude turned out to be a Christmas ornament, the 1990 Schooler Santa by Prairie Schooler.
It is stitched with DMC on 18ct putty khaki davos over one. I started stitching them around 2000, and decided to go back to the year my DH and I met in 1989 and make one a year onward as well. I am almost to the end of the oldies! I will finish them all as ornies and will have a Schooler Santa tabletop tree at Christmas (along with our artificial tree...we have cats). This one I have dubbed the Wildlife Santa.
Love his rosy cheeks. Maybe he's flushed from the heat too? ;)
ReplyDeleteLove your Santa and the squirrels - definitely wildlife santa!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely finish. Congrats
ReplyDeleteI rather like him. Looks as though he's been out in the sunshine. I wish we had some of your weather here in the UK!!
ReplyDeleteI hope you are staying cool too. It's been terribly hot here in OH as well. Your Santa is cute, and I think wildlife Santa is appropriate. Can't wait to see your update on Holland!
ReplyDeleteGreat Santa - he's one of my favourites in the series. Well done Kathy!
ReplyDeleteSQUIRRELS!!!! Oh, I need to find this chart. It's darling; congrats on the finish!
ReplyDeleteThanks y'all! Heather, I thought of you with that squirrel...mutant one, seeing as he's almost as big as the raccoon! He's on the sheet with 1988 to 1991 Santas.
