New stockings

29 December 2008

Finished on Christmas Eve and made mostly by Mum. Though I think the amount of time I spent umming and aahing over the different fabrics in the shop deserves some applause. As does Mum’s patience while I did so.

They’re all about a foot high (which seems appropriate) and are based very loosely on this free pattern.

Top row: (L-R) Dad, Mum, Lee, Debbie

They are DARLING Sarah! I’m so impressed. You and your mum are both very talented!

Sidenote: Would you consider being featured on my blog? Check out my new interview questions! I’d love to have you as a guest :o)

Oh my gosh!! I had no idea you two made so many!! WOW! Hey, thanks for posting a photo of them and giving us all a peek at your talents (there are so many, for sure). You must have a long line of artists and craftspeople in your family…my family is like that too. There is always something going on in our family household..someone’s creating something and got their fingers and nose into some new inspiration. And we love it! I bet you do too.

The stockings are all beautiful. (My favorite is the bottom left, with the stars…). :O)

Maybe it’s the camera angle, but it appears that you, Sam, and John have BIGGER stockings than the others! Maybe it’s just my eyes… ;-)

Hee hee, it’s just a trick of the wide angle shot. I promise they’re all the same size.

nice! One of these days I plan on finding my sewing machine (from under a the pile of laundry) and I’ll make some for us. I looks high and low this year for some nice ones and couldn’t find any I liked.
