Carriage House Samplings Stocking

Here is one of the projects I have been working on. It is an unfinished project that I started a few years back. I stopped working on this project because I don't think I can finish it. I have no problem on the sewing machine. The problem is the curves along the bottom part of the stocking. I plan to finish the cross stitch part soon since I just have a little bit left. I was originally going to give it to someone else unfinished, but NO ONE needs another unfinished project lying around!!





I am also working on Rachel Ellicott from R&R Reproductions.  It is an older pattern.  I am working it on 32 count cashel linen and a mix of Sampler threads and DMC.  I am so enjoying this product.  The 32 count is a joy to work on compared to my standard 40ct.  This pattern is spring-like to me.  Enjoy!

Both beautiful pieces. Your stocking shouldn't be to hard to finish. Just follow the outline of it by under half an inch. Where it curves just clip it in a few places up to just before the seam and it will come out perfect. You do the same with the lining. - Sandra.
