Santa Claus doesn’t mind, in fact he loves everything she bakes! Mrs Claus is a great pattern for embellishing! She looks fabulous in any Christmas fabric (not just red & green). This pattern requires some basic hand sewing. Add a message or date in embroidery or fabric marker on the apron to create a family heirloom that will be cherished for years. Pair her with the “All I Want For Christmas Santa” pattern for a cute Christmas couple!

This smiley-faced salamander has become incredibly popular with kids, but I’d never heard of one until the requests started pouring in for a pattern. (“Aristotle” rhymes with “axolotl” – if you’re having trouble pronouncing it!). Aristotle looks great in all colors, just like a real axolotl, but he’s generously sized to fit under your arm for lots of hugs. He is a quick easy pattern too!
