It's finished!!! After about five months of squeezing in a few stitches here...a few stitches there (mostly during naptime and after she was in bed)...I finished Andra's Christmas stocking today! Yes, the stocking missed her first Christmas, but now she'll have it for every other Christmas to come.
I have this funny habit of sewing Christmas stockings. I made one for Dave and one for me before we got married. Then I made one for Pudge of course. :) And now Andra has hers too! Hers was definitely the most challenging...it had a lot more beadwork than the others. There were a few times I thought my eyes were going to cross.
I love being crafty when I can manage to find the time, and I love being creative--so I had fun making this. I still have the Christmas stocking my mom sewed for me, and I love knowing that it was handmade by my mom. So I hope someday Andra treasures her Christmas stocking too--knowing her Mom thought about how much she loved her while she sewed every stitch! So Merry Christmas...a little early!
