I finally finished the stocking today.
Honestly, the piecing was annoying. As you can tell by the itty bitty patches near the top (where I started) and the giant patches at the toe (which I sewed today).
It's far from perfect but I'm glad it's done. And it'll certainly work for Santa to fill. Santa should really start thinking about stocking stuffers.
In other news, Biscuit and I made a deal at the Farmer's Market on Saturday: she'll cook Thanksgiving dinner and I'll pay her $4. It sort of started as a joke (I thought) but she's very into it. So far pie crust dough is made, pumpkin is baked and mashed and bread slices are drying out for stuffing. Her recipes are selected and she's written menus for our guests. She's off the hook for major chopping and oven use but we'll see how much of this she can do. Should be fun!
The stocking is adorable.
And I love your bargain. I want to know how it turns out.
