Finished the last of the Christmas Stockings. This one is for our son's little boy Cooper. It's quite long about 60cm, so I hope it holds a lot of goodies. I've had the Santa design for a while but I can't remember where I got it from. I just cut out a shape of a stocking and made it out of Hessian. Love and blessings Chris

I know that Cooper will love this, but some day when he realizes that how special it is, from his grandmother, it will become a treasure.;)

I hope so too Jerrilyn - he's coming here today (it's 7.19am Thursday morning). I have Ophelie today too, so the cousings can catch up. Love Chris

What a wonderful stocking Chris! It looks like it came from some high price
boutique! Hugs and *'s for all.

Lovely, Chris. The Santa design is beautiful. I had a look in 5D for the font you used, never tried it before, but I am going to use it immediately for a project for my granddaughter. So thanks for showing!

Thanks Carolyn - they were fun to do, but messy. Hessian is a very fibrous fabric! And no, I'm not filling them. We have decided to do a 1 present policy for each grandchild! It was costing too much to buy for everyone. Love Chris

Thats what i do to one gift for each of my 3 hugs carolyn

Soooo cute Chris. What is Hessian? I have never heard of this before. You know filling these when they are young is easy, it is when they get older that it is difficult and expensive, (I have six to fill this year and I told them it is the last year unless I get suggestion list),

O.K. Michelle, I had to look up what you guys call it and you call it Burlap! We've decided only to buy 1 present for each grandchild. Last year was absolutely over the top and we said never again. Hence 1 gift. Love Chris

Santa will be generous to fill up his stocking. It's a nice design and have no idea either where it came from.

Hi Anita, it must have been one of my favourite sites but it is very unusual for me not having the company name! Must have been a "senior" moment!!! LOL Love Chris
