Santa's Helper

Post updated December 24, 2020.

Santa has left an early Christmas present! No, not just the inspirational backing fabric, but....

Oh my! Could it be a PUPPY?

Oh! This little guy is adorable! And so ready play!

All wiggly and full of excitement - that tail just won't stop wagging!

Santa's Helper - my wiggly tail

Isn't he cute? Such an adorable little fellow - he came with the name 'Cooper', but for today, I'll
name him Santa's Helper!

I still can't believe Santa placed him under the tree.

With so much joy, he's certainly wiggled his way into my heart! Careful - he's coming in for a lick!

Has Santa's Helper wiggled into your heart too? Contact me via email for adoption (that is, for the full Christmas wall hanging pattern!). As Santa's Helper, he does require an experienced owner, someone who has had puppies before, and able to deal with applique, paper piecing, and mitered corners. But once that tail starts wagging, he'll be all yours!

What's that Santa? His siblings are up for adoption too? For a set of puppy appliques, Puppy Tales comes with 3 different puppies - Cooper (seen above), Patch, and Bailey (in both golden and black), wearing a Santa hat or bandana.

Each of these little guys measure 8" tall, and comes with complete fusing instructions, a handy resizing chart, and quilting suggestions - they sure would love to come home with you! Find Puppies Tales for adoption in the QuiltFabrication Etsy shop.


And for fun, check out the Pine Needle Quilting video to see how to quilt a pine tree!

Thank you Santa!
