The Stockings Were Hung by the, well, ummm, Wall with Care



I made the first stocking for Cabalito. Even chihuahuas need stockings!! The Nancy Halverson stockings I made last year for us. I thought the panel was so cute, and, again, I am a sucker for a panel. There were two more - and elf and an angel. I made those up for Joy and John Owen's cousins.
We have no fireplace so the wall just has to do. I hope you are enjoying the holidays. I am counting down the days. Only three more school days until Christmas holidays!! Woo hoo. This weekend I hope to get you up to date on my mystery quilt progress. - Julie

HEY! I KNOW those fabrics!!!
In fact, Cabalito's fabric is the same fabric that my mother used to make my daughter's stocking! She gave me all the "left over" scraps, and I made a 4" charm lap-quilt for a friend.
