Christopher's Stocking

About a year ago, I volunteered to finish cross stitching a Christmas stocking that one of my friends had started for her third child.   She had made stockings for her first 2 children, but her eyesight was getting worse, and she had stopped cross stitching.  This Shepherd's Bush stocking was an easy stitch for me since the linen is 18 count, 9 stitches per inch.

 Today I got the last charm sewed on.  My friend will be having the stocking professionally finished to match the ones of her other 2 kids.  She said her youngest, now a teenager, is getting excited to finally have a stocking like his older brother and sister.




I was glad to be able to help her out.

How cool that you were able to finish the cross stitch for your friend and with lots of time for her to have it turned into a stocking for this holiday season.

Thanks so much for linking up to September's Stitchery Link Party and for the link back. Aloha hugs!
