"Just had a thought - get some "brick" fabric - make a square on the front - get a small soft santa doll - sew back end to middle of square - Santa got stuck in the chimney."
That is too funny!

Thanks for the ideas everyone! There is a Goodwill in my town. I never thought to check there.
Someone at the guild meeting tonight said that thrift stores were good places to find wool to felt. Hmmm... could be a profitable shopping trip.

They also call them "Tacky" sweaters on eBay, or at least the ones I bought were, lol
There is a new commercial on tv with a guy and a skating cat sweater that his wife calls hideous on Facebook, lol

All of Mr.Cosby's sweaters were gifts from fans.
