I have been working on making Christmas stockings for our family of three since last year. The ones I attempted last year were way too small and falling apart before I even put anything in them! And this year, I, again did not use a pattern... I thought I had it all figured out through mapping it out in my head before I even got to cutting and sewing... But, there is one thing I messed up on... Where I have folded the top over, you can see the unfinished seam on the inside. But, if that is all for now, I am happy with these for the next few years at least!!
This year we got some great gifts from each other, as we had also given great gifts to one another, at our Craft Night Christmas Party!
This mini bunting on my mantle that says 'Merry Christmas' was made by Jennifer... And she crafted 5 more holidays of buntings for each of us ladies. That is 6 buntings each × 8... 48 buntings total!! She is dedicated, let me tell you!
A tea towel of a girl with a pie (that's supposed to be me! ;) made by Jessica.
A very pretty white snowflake (foamy/papery) wreath made by Heather.
A lovely Christmas-y candle, decorated by Sharon. There was also a beautiful paper cut card that she hand made.
And the things that I didn't have pictures of are a lovely canvas bag by Ashley, a clear ball ornament with the music Silent Night cut up and curled into strips inside of it by Rachel, a canvas knitted ornament of ice skates by Cathy and some homemade applesauce and a knitted headband by Joanna. :) These girls are awesome...and oh so crafty!!
