Once again it is time for a Stitch Along update. I have been steadily working on the Woodland Animals stocking for my daughter in law. This is where I was three weeks ago.
Looking at this now, I realize how much I have been stitching. I have almost finished the bottom half of the stocking.
I added the squirrels and the bunnies. Here is an up close photo of the squirrels before I had done the backstitching on the bunnies.
I am going to keep working on this until Christmas, but I doubt it will be finished. I still have the whole upper half of the tree and several more animals to stitch.
I have been very busy decorating my house for the holidays. You can see that post here. This coming week will be spent figuring out what to serve for Christmas dinner and baking cookies. I am sure I will work on the stocking too. Thank you to Avis at Sewing Beside the Sea for hosting Stitch Along every three weeks and sending us the needed posting reminders.
