Crazy Quilted Christmas Stocking

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas!

Earlier this year, I shared progress on this crazy quilted stocking for my son. I finished it at 9:03 p.m. on December 23rd - just in time for Santa to fill it on his visit Christmas Eve.

Way back in August of 2015, I shared the completed stitching on the Freebie Santa and the Mouse Ornament (retired) from Heaven and Earth Designs. I love the artwork by Scott Gustafson. 

This December, I finally had it framed.

Narelle, thank you for the workshop! 

I have loved seeing all of the creations shared by the other elves.

A list of projects is in the works for each month in 2018.

Lets Begin

Yeah... THanKs Narelle for hosting us all again on 2016.
In January I made my GS2 his first Xmas stocking.
This one will hang up in my home each year.

Some Christmas Finishes Throughout The Year

Well I have been very slack this year on this page.  A lot of personal things happening, but now sorted.  After our big move to the Central North Island for the hubbys job at the end of 2014, things did not work out so he up and quit farming and we moved back to Gisborne where we had a couple of houses and now I am a townie.  I grew up on a dairy farm and then meet the hubby who was a sheep and beef farmer, so have always lived on farms (except when I first left school for 20 odd months), so a big change.

Anyway sewing was sort of a back burner, though I did do some for swaps, and I was in a few Christmas swaps during the year so I will showcase them on here now.  I am ready for 2016 and will get back into the 1 Christmas Item a Month again. I already have plans too...... organised!!
