Default Christmas Project Stick Santa Done

This Santa, designed by Happy Hollow Designs (annie's attic.com I think is the booth where I got the kit) is a stick figure that slips over a 2 1/2 inch tube. He is 32 inches tall to the part that folds over. The squares finish to one inch and uses a lot of scraps. They are laid onto a fusible grid, adhered and then sewn as one continuous seam all vertical, cut to seamline, and then horizontal seams done. After you get the cutting done and the placement to your satisfaction, it goes together very fast. Very slick and makes the matches PERFECT at the seams. Looks like I am a genius at matching, but I am so not. Even the HSTs are matched amazingly well. I purchased this kit in Houston last year at the festival and am just now finishing. I have seen several patterns by this company and they are all darling, including pumpkins, various Santas, witches, etc. It is kind of stiff when you go to pull it right side out and doing the tip of the hat was a bit challenging and I would do the next one different, if there is a next one and I don't forget. Hope you enjoy looking at the new resident in our house.
