I haven't made a Christmas stocking before so it was a bit of a make-it-up-as-you-go kind of project. It didn't turn out exactly as I had envisioned, but I think it looks quite cheerful.

A Christmas stocking
At our last meeting our Monday Modern group decided that we would make Christmas stockings to donate to Women's Refuge. I have finished my stocking - just need to get to the shops and fill it with some nice bits and pieces to hopefully bring someone a light moment this Christmas.

ReplyDeleteLast year I decided (like two weeks before Christmas) to make stockings for everyone in my family. It was insane. I love the idea of donating stockings to charity. What a perfect way to make someone smile. Totally in the holiday spirit.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful gift. I think your stocking looks fabulous!
ReplyDeleteThis is really lovely - I think it is a wonderful gesture also
