Santa and Tree Tutorials By June Crawford of A Creative Dream

I just love adorable and colorful Santa's - especially if they are tall and skinny. If you do, too then you'll be happy to know that June Crawford has a wonderful tutorial on her A Creative Dream blog showing you how to make a Santa and tree. He'll make a nice addition to my skinny Santa's collection.

Ahh... Santa... let's finish him up...

Here's what June had to say about her Santa tutorial: Look... it's Santa... Trying so hard to get a jump on Christmas here. I made my list, and checked it twice... decided that most had been naughty... but I'm still gonna get going on the holiday anyway. Naughty or nice, it's a long list. And, since I'm working on it, I'm gonna drag all of you into it too...

A tree to go with the Santas

Here's what June had to say about her tree tutorial: Like I promised... you remember this pile of muslin shapes... right? I'd sewn them a few years ago and had tucked them away, as I often do, to get back to at some point. And, I did get back to them. The first one turned into Santa. But, of course, you know I'm not finished there... With one little change to the directions, you can create a whole 'nother thing... Let me show you ..

Lucy Angel Free E-Pattern From Linda Walsh Of Linda Walsh Originals

LW042EPattern - Lucy Angel Free E-Pattern

Here's what Linda had to say about her free e-pattern: Lucy is not only the most adorable of our angels, she is also one of the smallest. She only stands 4" tall, but she is a mighty angel. In fact, Lucy is the "boss" of all the angels. She assigns the tasks to the various other angels and keeps an eye out for them. Despite her small size Lucy has a HUGE heart. Lucy Angel is an adorable little angel. She is a free-standing angel doll with a wood doll pin body and head. Her wood head is painted and she has short curly hair and a halo. Her dress is made from wide wired ribbon and is decorated with a ribbon sash, and floral ribbon decoration.

Here's what June had to say about her tutorial: So, a couple of weeks ago... I told you I was working on a couple more of the art dolls like the "Ode to Kate", and I have been. One of the nice folks over on Craftsy asked if I had a tutorial for the original, and, while I don't, now I have one for a similar doll, and, of course, I'm going to share.

So... if you want to make your own art doll, similar to the "Ode to Kate", here it is!
