I finished writing all the cards on my list last night. That means I get to work on embellishing the stockings. It is kind of a reward.
As I explained previously, these are simple felt stockings. Every year I try to embellish them a little more so they are more interesting and more special.
Tonight I worked on DH’s stocking, the Noel stocking. I thought about adding joyeux, but I don’t think there is enough space. I am not going to change anything major, because I want to focus on the embellishing.
I went around the Noel in a blanket stitch, but I did it wrong. Still, I think it looks more interesting now than before.
I had already done the blanket stitch on the bottom, but added some to the top, which was a little tricky.
I am not sure what to add next, so I may move on to another stocking.
Beading, maybe?
