I saw this design on a book cover & I thought what a great idea to cover a tissue box so I worked on digitizing a design that would make me happy & this is what I have come up with so far. It needs a bit more tweaking but all in all not too bad. What do you think? Santa's belt is made from pleather & it is ok to work with as long as the design is not too dense.

I found a free santa belt applique that I added to my tissue hoIder. It has a nice little embroidered buckle. I added it to my side piece and did it all in the hoop. It worked perfect.

I have only done 1 side but I can post a pic if you would like.

this is so adorable. .....i keep thinking of the old Mervyn's ad: OPEN, OPEN, OPEN... but when ever DBC does open, i bet there will be people lined up for this one....

Thanks for sharing...

It needs a bit more work but most of it is in the hoop, each block is ith then you have to stitch them together & add the fur. thanks I am glad you like it. Hugs

Amazing. Well done Loralye.
