Old World Father Christmas ~The Stitch Fiddler ~ Bethann Scott

Now that summer is past and Autumn is here it's time for me to begin Christmas dolls. To start the season off, I made a Folk Art Father Christmas dressed in cream wool.  I also made a Feather Tree decorated with miniature baskets and rustic jingle bells.

CANDY CANE FATHER CHRISTMAS

This Father Christmas doll is made in a more traditional style wearing a red wool coat trimmed in white. I had to do a little work on the cart. It needed stained and I added twigs for the sheep to pull the cart. I also made a leather harness for the lamb. In some ways I hope this one doesn't sell because I would love to keep this one for me.
