It's a Christmas Miracle!

I finally finished our Christmas Stockings!! Well, the four that we need this year that is. The other three just need to be bound which I hope to do in the next couple of months. I started this project in October 2007 thinking they would be done for that Christmas. That didn't happen. Being 7 months pregnant and chasing a 2 year old didn't leave me with much energy or time to tackle the project. Don't get me wrong, I started. I think I even got the stars pieced and the batting cut. I thought for sure that I would have had them done sooner than last night! Whatever, they're done before Christmas and that was my goal.

Why do you need 3 more? Are you expecting triplets!!???

Melissa said...

No, I'm not expecting triplets. I wanted the family to have matching stockings so I got the work out of the way right now. Let's face it, I'm not on top of things enough to make another stocking after every child is born.

these are beautiful! It's fun to see how people are doing and peek into their lives through blogs. Good to hear from you. Merry Christmas!
