My friend Debbie has made Shepherd's Bush stockings for the two oldest of her children. She had them hanging in by the fireplace at her house last Christmas, and I noticed that her youngest child, Christopher didn't have one. Debbie said she had started one for him when he was a baby, but hadn't finished it. As Christopher is now 16, and she hadn't worked on it in years, it looked like she wasn't going to get to it. I volunteered to finish the cross stitching on it.
My goal is not to go back and redo the whole thing, just to finish the cross stitching. There are a few counting errors that I'm going to leave in, Most of the Santa figure is done, so it shouldn't take that long to complete. I told her I didn't guarantee to have it done by this Christmas. I probably could have it done by then, but if I do, it will be a pleasant surprise, not an expectation.

What a nice offer! I made stockings for my three nephews and they took forever, but they look great in the end, and they use them every year.
