Pony base is an engineered pose from two different generation 3 white ponies- body of a walking pose, head of a donkey pose.

Left original body color, eyes are hand-painted in my realism style in Merry Treat’s pale green color, but I decided to blend a monochromatic theme this time, embellished with rhinestones. Her eyes have blue star rhinestones in the pupils.

Cutie mark is a 3-D Santa trinket I’ve had in my doo-dad drawer since my childhood, and have had no purpose for up until now. A lot of his paint had been worn off, so I repainted him. Painted holly leaves around him and added metallic red rhinestones for the berries. Took a strip of red leather and a strip of white leather, put glue on them then twisted them together to make a candycane to put in the Santa’s hand.

Mane and tail are rooted in dollyhair’s nylon mlp hair in the colors candy apple red, and dragonfly green. Left her hair style plain and straight, true to the original Merry Treats pony from the 80’s.

For her outfit, decided to do a santa suit, but in a pale pink.

Started off with beige boots. Cut them from real leather, used a leather hole puncher to punch holes along the edges for the hem stitches. Soles of boots are same leather. Lined the bottoms with pale gray strips of leather, and a beige thin ribbon. Hemmed the tops with white faux fur.

I then hand-stitched her coat train, front leg sleeves and chest piece from a pale pink fabric with a shiny sheen to the textile. Lined all the pieces with white faux fur, stitched down some white bias tape on the chest piece with pink medium neutral ribbon over top with red beads for buttons.

I wanted to use a coral red material that has a gold sheen to it, so I made her hat out of it. Cut a large triangle from the fabric, stitched it then hemmed the bottom with faux fur, and stitched a bell at the end. Stitched tiny silver bells on light green ribbon, tied a bow and attached it to a red flower rhinestone and attached it to her coat.

Santa sack- took a glass ball and stitched some red & white printed material around it. I had pre-crafted some presents from beads and a striped candy bead, so I stitched them along with various other beads and a tiny toy aqua/yellow rocking horse on the sack, and a cluster of large gold bells. There is a glass red buld bead on there too.
