P.S. Have you all been to Getting Stitched on the Farm? I think I'm in love: the painted wall; the socks for Vogue Knitting; the animals. Sigh...

oh! i've had christmas on the brain too. these stockings are lovely!
These are amazing!
The weird thing is, just before I looked at your beautiful stockings on Flickr I had been thinking "when do you start for Christmas", and I guess it is now!!!
They are so lovely, I think that to recieve anything in these would be an honour :-)
Thanks so much for showing us these gorgeous stockings! I love them! I could have favourited the whole set :)
(I almost did!)
These all made me smile so much! Lovely.
they are just beautiful! They look very fresh here in August, instead of being in the midst of the Christmas rush.
So wonderful! Your embroidery is amazing and the buttons are tiny treasures. I'm so glad I checked out the Flikr because the Mod one is my favorite. They are totally inspiring me to hone my stitching skillz.
Thanks for the link to Kristin Nicholas. Colorful Stitchery is a cool book. You are right, that wall is great! I love the Islamic tile vibe.
ilove the stockings, butI think i love the green woood they are lying on even better! What is that gorgeous surface?
Wow, fantastic work! Thanks for the link to Getting Stitched on the Farm! She's a celebrity...almost. I hope she sees your work too. Maybe in a future book?
Nice to know what these were.
They are simply beautiful.
Love the stockings!
thanks for showing us the WHOLE stockings...every now and then i just flip to your shots of the details you shared with us back in Feb to feel newly inspired... these are just FANTASTIC!! also, thanks for the great new link!!
They are all beautiful. Thanks for the inspiration!
Wow, I haven't even begun to think of Christmas (THANKS for that, btw. Ha!)
Those stockings are absolutely beautiful. They should be hanging on the mantel year-round.
Hi!
Well, it's hot here and surprise, surprise, christmas stockings... they're veeeeeeery beautiful... thank you for sharing... gosh, so beautiful...
greetings, manela
what a great post! i think we are probably on the same wavelength as I just bought a holiday crafting magazine! (yes they are in the stores already!)
these stockings put the ones I did last year to shame. I really admire your work!
Oh my goodness. My momma crafts Christmas stockings for each of the kids and significant others. She re-does stockings as interests and hobbies change. Needless to say, out stocking display always draws commetns. Yours are great - thanks for sharing :)

They are beautiful, the prettiest stockings I have ever seen and not too "christmassy".
Those are gorgeous! I've been starting to compile my Christmas crafting master plan - so this was a timely post.

I favorite'd these a long time ago on Flickr :) These are the most wonderful stockings I think I have ever seen!
Thanks for sending people my way. Beautiful stockings.

I'm so glad you all enjoyed the stockings. They were the beginning of this explosion of crafty I've been up to for almost two years. They're also the reason I have that huge craft stash. I remember feeling like I was using up all my good buttons on this project, so I had to remedy the situation. Many flea markets and garage sales later I have a bit of a hoarding problem. Do they have counseling for craft supply horders? :) I'm sorry if the early holiday thing offended anyone. I just have to get started now on the handmade things or I'll run out of time. I don't want to stay up till three the night before Christmas this year. Good luck everyone, and thanks again. M
These socks are so very beautiful!!
It almost makes me wish it would be Christmas (almost ;))
