Add festive charm to Christmas makes with this Santa face pendant design, stitched in a cute appliqué style with a bright red hat, fluffy white beard and a neat sprig of holly at the side. The black eyes, pink nose and softly blushed cheeks give him a friendly expression that feels more elegant than cartoonish. It suits anyone sewing for family Christmas traditions, from handmade ornaments to keepsake gift bags and seasonal linens.
With six thread colours and a dense, heavily stitched finish, it has the solid, filled-in look that stands up well on sturdy fabrics. I’d place it on stockings, Santa sacks, quilted wall hangings, table runners or the front of a festive apron, where the rounded face and hanging loop shape can read clearly at a glance. The generous size range makes it useful for small hanging decorations as well as larger statement pieces where you want Santa’s face to be the main event.
