CHRISTMAS QUILT-ALONG PART 3

This will be my last post for the day.  The project is not done but I have accomplished a lot.
The hand applique of the cabin & chimney is done.  The stitching of the wool Santa is complete.  There are berry branches to embroider yet.  Those will be by Santa's arm on the left side of the picture.  The trees and heart need machine stitching around the edges.  Then a border to be added to the top.  I hope to finish the top tomorrow some time.

It has been a fun day.  Thanks for stopping by for a visit.
