Completed Commission

I finished this Christmas Stocking for a customer this weekend....and it turned into more of an ordeal than they normally are.  Tried finding the cording/piping needed for the edge at two different stores (Joann's and Hobby Lobby) to no avail, ended up making my own as a result.

Stats:

Black Velveteen used for the back (from stash)

Navy blue cotton with gold fleck used to make piping from stash (fabric from stash)

Cream/tan/gold metallic Christmas print from stash used for the lining

Royal blue grosgrain ribbon for hanging loop (from stash)

Finished in a couple of hrs.

Gratitudes:

1. Vacation starts tomorrow!!!!!!!!

2. Beautiful weather is forecast all along the way for the drive.
