Happy Dance - Santa Noel

Started: 8/6/2015
Finished: 8/10/2015
Mill Hill Charmed Santa Faces - Series II

I stitched this for the Christmas Ornie SAL 2015 where the theme for August is Santa Claus / Mrs. Santa Claus. 

I used the perforated paper, floss and charm included in the kit.  The hanger was made using the Kumihimo technique with the three colors of floss from the band on Santa's hat.  It's the first time I've used this technique for a hanger, but it won't be the last.

The kit is dated 2002 and has probably been in my stash since for at least 10 years.  I guess it's about time it got stitched up.  I have a couple more of these in my stash so they'll probably come out to play sometime in the next couple of months.
