Santa Stocking WIP 2

Wow I'm on a roll 2 updates in one day.  LOL.   Here is a WIP wk 2 of the Santa Stocking.


Update, with a finish

It has been over a month since I updated my blog so thought it was time to do so.

We are all moved into our new house have everything put away, and I'm loving it here.  I did encounter some electric problems in my dining room so my BIL that is an electrician has come out to see what the problem is.  Seems that we had some broke electric lines so he will be out this Saturday to do some rewiring for us.  He will also be running new electric line to the back barn as there was nothing back there and I really need something as that is where my horses are at.

I have finished all the stitching on the Christmas Stocking for the grandbaby now I just need to get some fabric to sew it all up.

I have also started on another stocking this one if  for my DIL.  This pic was taken last Friday, I will try and get a more recent pic up this weekend.


Now I'm off to get some more stitching done.  So much to do before Christmas gets here.

We bought a house.

My husband and I just bought a house we signed our papers last week.  The house is a 3 bedroom 2 full baths with a basement and sits on 10 acres.  I'm so excited looking forward to moving in.  So since we have been busy house hunting and now packing for the big move I have not stitched in a couple of weeks.  As soon as we get moved I plan on stitching all kinds of things for the new place.  Here are some pics of what the new place looks like.

WIP Updates.

I have now stitched 11 days on the Santa Snowman stocking and I like the progress I'm making on it, but stitching with the Kreinik Metallic thread was giving me a headache so I put the stocking aside and started working on a piece that has a horse and reads welcome.  Here is progress pics of both.

Santa Snowman Stocking WIP

I have been stitching on the stocking for 4 days now.  I think its turning out so cute.  I don't like the colors the pattern called for the name so trying to come up with some other colors as soon as I figure out what I want to do I will get the name stitched.
