I've been working on this project for several months. Updating our stockings was made completely necessary by the birth of Eliana last year, but I was a little busy and I knew that she would not care if she didn't have anything. So this year I started looking for ideas and finally found one that I liked. The best part was that I had most of the supplies already. And the fabric and thread that I did not have, I was able to get an awesome deal between sales and coupons at JoAnns. Can you tell that being thrifty is one of my biggest motivations in life?
The hardest part was embroidering the names. I used my regular machine and by the end (it took me quite awhile to finish all 6 names, plus I redid Adelaide twice) I was actually really good at it. But you could not pay me to do it ever again. So it's a good thing I don't ever have to do this again.
