Shop stitching

I've committed Needle Nicely to stitching four Christmas stockings for customers for this Christmas.  With that in mind, I took one home for Memorial Day weekend and got started stitching on it.  It is being stitched in a combination of Paternayan wool and DMC perle cotton.  The 2nd photograph shows how much 1/4 oz of Paternayan covers.  Quite a bit to go.

Of course, blogger is getting contrary and is refusing to download the photograph of the entire stocking.  It is a design by Strictly Christmas. 

I'll come back later and see if it will cooperate.  And it did--voila!

It was fun to have this to work on while I was rooting on Boo Weekley as he won the Colonial tournament in Ft Worth, TX.  And the Milton, FL, golfers strike again!
