| This is my Amanda Lawford Cowboy Santa The plaid coat is Shaded Very Velvet & a solid Very Velvet. One side of the coat took 10 hours on Friday to complete. |
 |
| The holly berries are wooden beads wrapped with Kreinik ribbon. Open stitch on the beard so the shading shows through. |
 |
| Same open stitch is used on Santa's green robe & the background night sky. I've forgotten the the name of the stitch but it can be found in several of Julia Snyder's books. |
 |
| Silk ribbon on the hat. Gold circles are Jessica's. Appears that the coat is an open stitch so the shading shows through. |
 |
| Belt detail is wonderful. Just can't remember what it was. |
 |
| Amanda Lawford Santa Coat is 2 rows of continental separated by 5 rows of skipped tent. |

| Note the raised holly boarder. The theme for this year's retreat was Santa Clause. We each chose a Santa canvas. Julia Snyder did the stitch guide for each Santa. I don't know the designers of all the canvas's. These are just a few of the 20 Santa's. No two were alike. Stitch with joy, Tisha |
