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.
Yay! Vacation! Are you leaving early in the morning? The car's packed and ready to go? Have a safe trip. I-20 to 10? The stocking looks great. Your cording worked well.
