I finished my second cross stitch ever recently. When I was in high school I had a friend whose mother had stitched a stunning Christmas stocking for each one of her nine kids. When I saw them I remember thinking, I'm going to do that one day for my own children.
I have two little boys now. The second stocking is in the works and I promise to finish it by next Christmas. In the mean time, here's the first one!
Now, to cut it out and put backing on it. Why is that the hardest part for me?
So beautiful. Now I'm rethinking my plan to knit stockings. I love that it's Christ-centered rather than Santa-centered.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Schmath! I'm working on the second one, but it's Santa-themed. :) I love these classic Janlynn patterns.
