xmas stocking

I joined a stocking swap this year, and did some redwork embroidery onto a hand sewn stocking. This isn't the best picture, as the colors are much nicer in real life. It was quite lovely. I recieved a beautiful hand knitted stocking in return that i have hanging in my craft room.

Charlotte

Charlotte is a doll that I made from the book "Wee Felt Folk" by Salley Mavor. Isn't she pretty? Hair hair is made from wool roving that I braided. Her legs and arms ar pipe cleaners wrapped in embroidery thread, and her clothing is hand embroidered. The swirls on her skirt are needle felted. I really want to make more of these. Daddy suggested I make our whole family.
