For the Nutcracker Nuts

Stephanie just posted a series of nutcracker designs stitched by or for a friend of hers who loves nutcrackers.

Sheena also posted some fun Christmas finishing, which includes a cowboy and girl nutcracker set.  That's something you don't see every day!

I have to admit they seen a little creepy to me--those teeth!--but I know there are many nutcracker collectors.   And occasionally I find a nutcracker canvas that really charms me--like this Peter Ashe nutcracker and mouse king piece.

Whether you are a nutcracker lover or not, hope you enjoyed the nutcracker collector's designs.  Got a great nutcracker to recommend to fellow collectors?  Just comment below....
