2018 Ornament Exchange - Becky Clay


Victorian Santa #5

Becky Clay writes "I made the Victorian Santa #5 pattern by Linda Farber, which can be obtained from bead-patterns.com, for Jasvanti Patel.  There are a series of five faces in patterns and I love the shading in the beard that makes it sparkle."

love how his cheeks glow in this photo!
















Searching the site, I wasn't able to find that particular pattern, but did come across Linda Farber's delightful Pierre Noel Pin or Ornament, part of Bead-Patterns Magazine, Issue 8.  I did find the pattern on the Sova-Enterprises site, but have never ordered from them, so I have no personal experience working with them, good or bad.

  1. Hi Becky,
    I love the Santa ornament you beaded for Jasvanti. I collect Santa items so I am going to check out the patterns for these Jolly Old St. Nicks.
    Merry Christmas,
    Therese

  2. Wonderful Santa ornament Becky! He has so much character. I hate counted patterns, but love the results. Your ornament almost makes me want to try my hand at such things again. Almost. :)

    Thanks for joining in!
