It looks like a bomb wnet off in here and in the spare bedroom ! I've hauled out all my felt, thread and batting ! Course to get at them all, I've had to move myriads of other 'stuff' to get them down from the cupboard in the sewing / spare bedroom. I spent almost 16 hours over embroidering the names, then cutting out, sewing the decorations for the front before I could stuff them, sew them on and then sew up the stockings ! I even made a new decoration - a stocking ! - as I wanted all five for one family different. Looking at the pile of felt I have, there was really no need to pick up the 5 pieces from Michael's on Wednesday !
Looks lilke I may get some orders to do some in the new year for next Christmas. At least then I will not have a short deadline like with these. Phew ! Glad that is done!
Kids were nuts last week, so this week should be worse. Schedules are pretty well thrown out the window with all the rehearsals for their concerts. Makes for very long days !!
Really not anything new or exciting which is a good thing. I made Hamburger souop with barley and veggies[ used up some grated zucchini that I had frozen.] Tonight we're having lemon chicken stir fry over rice. I think we have some apple pie leftover for dessert.
