Joe's Christmas Stocking


I finished Joe's Christmas stocking. He wanted Frosty the Snowman, so I picked Mr. and Mrs. Frosty to represent Joe and me. It definitely suits us to a tee. I machine embroidered the design, and used mostly Michael Miller Fairy Frost, which I adore, and some Christmas fabric. He was so pleased with it, and it will be hanging over the Stanley Range in our new home.It will be a very special Christmas for both of us and our two boys Rufus and Charlie.

What a wonderful Christmas gift for you and Joe, a new home. I love moving into a new home and fixing it up as I want it. Opening the boxes is almost like Christmas morning. I know both of you will have fun.
