Santa in Snowy Sky, worked in wool needlepoint, made up as a throw pillow with Santa. It is the same tent stitch used for canvas work that gets passed down a generation at a time.
Out on the first of December, packed away on the sixth of January, loved for a lifetime. Needlepoint reads fine and smooth, so it balances a chunkier hooked or woven piece.
Santa's sleigh sweeps across the night sky in a curve of reindeer. Below it sits a snowy village with a gold moon low on the horizon. Stars dot the deep blue. The scene has enough going on to reward a close look from a chair or a bed.

Worked in wool with the even tension and clean finish that good needlepoint is judged on. These are made in limited seasonal quantities. The wool is why this one goes back into the box every January instead of into the bin. A wonderful gift for the family that unpacks the same decorations every December.
