Stocking- Half way there!!!! (well, almost)

As of about 30 minutes ago- I am officially half way through all the pieces of the stocking. That is not to say that I've got half of it completed, as there are several details that get put on last that are done with beads and sequins instead of appliqued pieces.

Now that I have the swing of things going,  Im finding the craft quiet enjoyable. Last night, I was home alone and able to work on it, so I turned on hulu and cued up Downton Abby and delved into that whilst my dinner was in the oven.

Diner last night was roast pork shoulder with sauerkraut and carrots, in case you were wondering.

I watched the first two episodes and feat that I may have a new era of history to start looking into for the costumes. The fabrics are rich and luxurious, and starting to move into some really lovely colors. I did enjoy the show, and this will be my new home-alone-crafting show.

But, back to the main point. The stocking.

So without further ado- I give you two more photos of it, the first is as of last evening, and the second (full photo) is as of lunch today.


This weekend, I will take a short break from this stocking, to decorate my own little stocking for our secret santa exchange at work. I have my idea planned out, as well as my shopping list for Joann Fabric.
I will also be making a post regarding my Eggnog cupcakes with Butter Rum frosting that I am submitting for a cook off at work... (yes, that was your teaser!)

Pin It Now!
