S. Claus & a Cheesy Pincushion ~

Miss Flea finished up the model for S. Claus ~
...and I am in the process of 'playing' with this cheese box.

have to figure both out a bit more ~

****

 notice that S. Claus has a pair of scissors in his mittened hand?
(i thought you would )

 I love Flea's finish, but don't love mine,
 ~ so I will take it all apart and start over again....

the general concept of a huge pincushion in a box is good,
and as you can see by my sloppy stitching
&
crooked placement of motifs
that I was in a hurry to 'see' it somewhat finished...

what will S. Claus become??? any suggestions?

 in the meantime, I'll get to work on the finish of S. Claus.

not really sure what it will be, perhaps I'll put it in one of my handpainted frames,...
we'll see :)

with hurricane Sandy looming, I have the woodstove going ~
we are all safe & snug in this little farmhouse,

and all of my outside friends are safe & warm as well.

 

Hoping you are all safe & sound where you are!
