This is the stocking I am doing for my daughter, Samantha. I will share close ups of different parts of the stocking in the coming days. The colors for this stocking are meant to depict Tuscany.
First is the beautiful silkie. The pearl cotton used to make the wagon wheels and to frame the silkie Wildflowers 008 Nefertiti, also around the silkie are garnet beads. On the left is a pretty brown flower lace added by one of the gals in my RR group, I sent the stocking around to get their help and talents for my daughter (who by the way just love it). Below is a pretty ribbon I got from one of my Treasurey Club packets from Evening Star Design. Alot of the fabrics for the stocking and the silkie came from there as well.
I could not resist showing Samantha the stocking when she was here for Christmas, and even got her to do some work on it. This is her first needle work, the heart is all hers. She did a great job.
The seams to the right and left were creations from the RR gals.
Full front.

Full back.
I would like to invite you to visit my Wyoming blog, there you can see the addition we are working on and things about the house. I want to begin a new segment on Rustic cabin decorating over there here is the link.....http://newlifewy.blogspot.com/
The new year already looks like a busy one, right now we are taking a little break from the frantic schedule we kept before Christmas. I hope you will stop by from time to time and see what we are up to.
May you have a happy and blessed new year.

I like the new look. It does fit. Love the stockings! Everything is so nice Gail--you write well and I enjoy your ramblings--I just have been remiss in checking with the blogs. I can't even keep my own up.
Decided to take a cruise down the blogspot this evening, and love your new look! Not too much at all - I think it fits your personality perfectly!
