I got one stocking completed and it's been mailed off!! I hope my grand niece loves it for many years. My sister made the charms that are attached to the staff - they are pictures of her son, his wife and the baby when she was born.
I almost have the second stocking done and will go back to work on it yet tonight. I am also doing a rag quilt, that is almost all sewn together, which means I'll still have to clip it. I'm thinking I might take it to work with me tomorrow and sit outside and clip.
I've been thinking about 2016 and starting to plan my projects. I have several needlepoints that I would really like to work on next year, so think it might be more needlepoint than x-stitching going on at my house.
Hoping to post the other picture tomorrow night - the cording will be tricky as I'm going to make it myself and have to remember where I put my hand crank to twist it.
Hope everyone is doing well and not stressing out with year end projects.

Oh almost forgot - ALL of the pillow cases are done as well!! Just have to decide who gets what!! There are a few that I know where they will go, but a few that I will have to decided on.
Wow you have been busy! This is beautiful and I love how your sister made personal charms to complement it too. I'm sure it will be treasured for years to come.
ReplyDeleteCongrats it looks great! I don't have many plans for next year lol. I'm usually a fly by my seat person but we'll see. Good luck with your goals!
