He is stitched on 40 count with called for colors. I did change out the alphabet to red and green since the cream color wouldn't show on the linen. The PS Santas are all stitched on a much darker linen.
I have two to fully finish into ornaments before I allow myself to stitch another.
I have thoroughly enjoyed these stitches.
Stay tuned for the ornament.

He's just gorgeous, Sandy!
ReplyDeleteDid I tell you that I have a Santa similar to this somewhere around here? I stitched him about circa 1990! Never made it into a pillow or framed him.
Lovely finish.
ReplyDeleteI like your colour change very much.

Beautifully stitched! Good choice of colors so they show up on the lighter shade of linen.
ReplyDeleteI have not stitched on linen before. ... kind of intimidated by it.
Thanks for the inspiration!!
So glad you are enjoying the Santas. Today is a finishing day for me as well. I am hopping to have four finished by the end of the day!!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your PS Santa finish! I like the changes you made to the alphabet.
ReplyDeleteHe is so handsome, Sandy--and a good idea to finish the two you've done before moving on to another. I find that if I leave a finish too long, I never go back to fully finish it :) Enjoy your day!
ReplyDeletePretty stitchings, he'll look great for Christmas!
ReplyDeleteHe's perfect Sandy. RJ
