Thank you for the kind comments about my family's Christmas stockings. I just finished the baby's stocking:
http://duringquiettime.blogspot.com/2009/08/babys-christmas-stocking.htmlIt isn't at all what I had pictured in the beginning but I am happy with the results and it looks nice along side the others. I used one fabric that was also used in my stocking and the same hanger that I used on my husband's stocking to help tie it in with the others.
Now I need to backtrack and start thinking about Halloween costumes and my daughter's fall birthday. All the handstitching made me eager to do some so I got ahead of myself!
