The First Noel


The Angels Did Say.


So you remember my stocking tree and Santa.


I decided I wanted to make another stocking.
Much larger.


The candy canes were chain stitched 
using red valdani. 


I love how they turned out.


Now for the holly berries,
I like to make a square first.


Then I cut my squares to make circles.


Perfect berries... each one a bit different.


Did you know Noel is the English synonym for
Christmas.


I used all wool to make my Noel stocking.
It was a pattern from a book I purchased.


Now what to put on each side?


Roses hips and white tallow berries.


Tied together with the same fabric as my
lil stockings.
So glad I was able to finish this.
My original plan was to make three stockings.
Looks like next year for the others.

It seems I never have enough time to
finish some things.

Do you have trouble finishing things? 

Noel Blessings To All!
Janice
