Hand Stitching Christmas

I know the holidays are over but I've been in a sewing mood lately...which is a good thing because I almost sold out on my applique Christmas stockings and I know I won't feel like working on them come spring.

Plus I had a couple of special orders that pushed me on ...


"Sew" the week between Christmas and New Years I cut out and pinned 7 stockings...
This way, with the designing done, all I have to do is choose a stocking and start stitching...
Just grab and go...  
 With a daughter in club volleyball, I'm on the road a lot and
there's way to much down time for a "get er done" person like me.  :)

The stockings keep my hands busy and help me feel like I'm still accomplishing something.


I finished this happy little monster at a Volleyball tournament in Eugene.


And started the Lab in between games in Tacoma.




The Santa and the Jeeps were finished one hour at a time on my lunch breaks at work...


This one was a special order for a lovely customer and her jeep loving husband.


 I was so pleased with the way it turned out I made a 2nd one to sell in my Etsy shop.
I think it will be a big hit...I should probably make more!  :)


How about you?  Are there any of you out there still working on Christmas or am I the only one???

And of course I will be linking up to many of the parties in my side bar.
