I know, I bought a portrait of Santa hand painted at one of our craft fairs, for over the mantel during the holidays, the artist used her father-in-law for model and it really looks like my Santa!

Thanks, The pattern was a McCalls, I think, then I modified it, the closure zips and then velcros over the zipper. I would like to make him another with a big collar and longer faux fur, but really hat working on the velvet!

yea mine too. At the school, because he has done it for 3 years now, they see the same Santa each year, so they do believe. The young ones anyway.

Well he will be the first to say Hobby not vocation. He doesn't want any part of doing the Mall scene... Oh how I wish he would, he does look so real.

He is a sweet cursty ol man.... I love to watch him when he is Santa with the little kids that think he is the reall deal. Our grandkids are very careful not to say that is my grandpa....They know he is a helper...and they don't spoil it for the others.
