    WOW!! I am really impressed! I don't do counted cross stitch because of lousy vision, but I know there's a lot of work that went into these!

    I have all the Prairie Schooler santas. They started putting the earlier ones from the 80's and 90's in booklet. All the newer ones since say 2000 are still on the little cards. I was going to collect them all and do a quilt with these worked in. Fat chance that's going to happen. However I have adapted a few to the premade pillows on the larger count AIDA as Christmas gifts.

    The one you have with all the woodland critters is the one I've done twice to the pillows. I used mohair and fuzzy stuff to give the critters a "critter" look.

    Beautiful work, you've done so many. Awesome.

    Those are beautiful and since I cross stitch I can appreciate all the work you put into each. Thanks for sharing.
