Spotlight Video Featuring Santa Welcome by Needle Bling Designs
Santa Welcome Pattern from from Needle Bling Designs.
Model is stitched on Dixie Sampler 28 Ct Butternut
Stitch count is 26 x 108
Stitched with ether DMC or Weeks Dye Works
Other Fabric Suggestions...
28 Count Desert Stone
10 Count Heather field
Use Wisper Thread for his beard and hat
I also like Weeks Dye Works Holly (1279) for the stitching of Welc-me
Tips...
When stitching on a large count like a 10 Count use all 6 strands of floss. This will fill up the stitched enough so it wont look thin or sparce.
When working with Wisper Floss, try and smooth down the floss as you stitch. You will also want to cross your x as you go. Once you are completed with the stitches use a Judy's Boo Boo Stick to fluff up all of the Wisper fibers and your Santa will have a fuzzy beard.
