Default Christmas Fabric

Does anyone recognise this Rose and Hubble ‘Christmas Collection’ fabric and what would you do with it?

The Santas go the full WOF and there is no gap between each one.

Why does on row show show the front view and the other row the back?

And do you think Santa’s face is a bit creepy!

Haha! He is a bit gnome-like, but then is that maybe appropriate? I think the whole thing could be folded in half (through the middle) and used as a 'stuffed object'? Maybe to sit on a mantel or as a draft stopper at the base of a door? Or, if the size is big enough, several small dolls or pincushions?

I was thinking the same as Cheshirepat, a door draft stop or mantle topper. You could also make it into a circle/bowl sort of thing.

maybe it's meant to be made into a door stopper? something visible on both sides at least.

i'm doing fussy cutting so that's what i'd use it for. it looks like it was meant to be a 2 sided draft dodger on the bottom of a door.

If you do a draft door stopper, sew a loop of rope on one end so it can hang on the door knob when not in use.

Is that the full WOF? Even as a draught excluder it would be pretty tall but it doesn't look as if it was designed to be fussy cut does it? I can't think of any other use for it at the moment though.

Santa's face? It looks continental doesn't it?

Edit: It might be for a bolster cushion perhaps?
