I made this fabulous lapquilt for my mother in law for Christmas. I'll have to dig up some pics of it and give it an entry all of it's own one day soon. The road to finishing that project was filled with as many bumps and potholes as the Dan Ryan Expressway this long LONG winter. There were days working on that project where all I could do was curse a blue streak. It helped me learn an important crafting lesson.
"When you hit a brick wall, play with something else until the headache goes away."
So, I took some scraps of the material I used for the lapquilt and made these cute little stockings for gifts. This one, excuse the poor photo, is made of a lovely chocolate brown velvet with handstitched sequins adorning the top hem. Only took about a half hour. And it made my headache go away, too.
