Mrs Claus is rather rosy and round - due to her festive baking fixation. 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!
