Hot off the sewing machine. This is an FSL Santa from Embroidery by TM. It’s in the 5x7 hoop. The next one I do will have flesh colour for the face, it said grey in the instructions but once I’d started and realised the colour was his face I just kept going. I don’t like the colour of his face, but he’s still gorgeous. Love Chris

yip pink it is
cheers

Hi Hilda, yes, you are right. The "flesh" colour works much better. Love Chris

Just the right touch of pink!! Looks perfect!

Thanks Laura, the Flesh colour comes in handy for body parts. Love Chris

Such a lovely Santa! I would love to order the pattern but EmbroiderybyTM doesn't want to sell to the Netherlands :-(

Yes he is ! much better!

Great looking Santa, Chris! It looks more like a stitched filled design than FSL!

Beautiful Santa - I love Santas and my tree and home is full of them at Christmas. Great job....may he has soot on his face? LOL

Thanks Kim, I thought so too. Love Chris

Your FSL is wonderful - I am not that great at it!! Take a flesh colored felt tip and color it in a little if you feel like you need to. He is adorable!! Hugs, Laura

Thanks for that tip Laura. I've got a full set of Sharpies, so I'll have a look through them. It doesn't really matter though as he's going on my Christmas tree! Love Chris

He IS a pretty Santa. The stitching looks great. I don't understand how those zig-zag edges will not come apart though, once the wash-a-way is off. That is why I don't do FSL. I do understand your concern about his face....he may be like me, skin changes colors in the cold.

Now, that's a good idea, he's been through some soot! Love Chris

Beautiful! I have done many a FSL but none so beautiful as your Santa!
