2 More Blackbird Stockings

Here are the 2 BBD stockings I made for my son's teachers. Instead of using a print fabric on the back I used the same 30ct Iced Cappuccino linen as the front. I stitched his name on them and on one the year on the back being the other has the year as part of the design. I also used 6mm glass beads for the hangers.
These were much easier to make than my first one. In fact I finished them up so fast my DH kept saying "Wow! You did them already?? " LOL  He is so happy that I can sew now and I don't have to ask him to do it :)



I hung them on my tree to take the pictures. I figure I will leave them there until I wrap them. It is probably the safest place for them to be. I always have this fear something is going to happen to a finished piece (especially a gift) and then I have to start all over again! lol

 I still have one more ornament I made to show but I am waiting to hear from the recipient that she has received it. According to the Post Office it was delivered over a week ago. I am not sure what to do.

Thank so much for stopping by and for all the wonderful comments you all leave me!
