START.
READ WELL BEFORE. SANTA material for use in START.
This is a list of all known materials and are almost always used:
- Scissors, needle, pins, thread to machine, thimble, filling.
This is another list of tools.
- A fine hook, a soft pencil or pen with water, a needle wool, a long thin screwdriver, acrylic paints in black and yellow, lipstick red, white mohair, ribbon trim kreinix metallics 1 / 16 " No. 002.
Fabrics:
- Solid color patch and yellow flesh.
Note: Our "Santa Start" is 70% of the original. NOTES:
Note 1: For the star we are going to give a couple of ideas. The original figure is worked in a light yellow solid and this option has seemed nice.
If you do not have a solid yellow or your pieces of fabric are not large enough so that you fit the pattern, you can paint acrylic solid yellow oil and the effect is the same.
Acrylic paint, applied to cloth and when dry, it hardens enough. If you choose this option to use your star to the back of it a solid
unpainted.
Note 2: Another little thing that we struggled to find. This is a golden ribbon brand Kreinik metallics 1 / 16 "ribbon No 002. The face of Santa Claus has a gold trim that frames and this tape is the one we used for this purpose. If you are fond of cross stitch to know better.
Note 3: The beard of the figure is mohair wool specially treated to make wigs for dolls.
Ideally, use the white wool. Our beard Santa's blonde and we have "borrowed" another St. that was stored on the box of Christmas decorations.
Like going to see this doll is very easy but you have to be a girl of resources to complete. To see that this is giving you.
Note 4: You will need a very small candy cane to decorate the Santa Claus beard. To do so follow the instructions on the entry "A Red Sock."
