Handwork

My knitting hiatus continues...

(I've been having pain in my shoulder and arm when I knit :(  )

but I have been getting some other handwork done!

I can't just sit and do nothing....

my hands have to be busy.

I pulled out another Bucilla kit I had purchased

a while ago and had not made.

These kits are so much fun!

The felt is stamped, the directions are so clear and

everything needed except the stuffing or batting is in the kit.

As long as I go in the order of the directions,

there are no problems.

Instead of using stuffing, I use scraps of batting to fill the pieces,

where needed. The directions tell you what pieces need stuffing.

Here is the latest:

You can see the stamped felt in this photo.

Each piece is numbered and has lines to show where the next piece

overlaps, if necessary.

 

Isn't this little guy cute?

 

The sequins add so much to these stockings.

I usually purchase my kits from

Merry Stockings

or

Herrschners.

I will keep stitching away and will

have a gift made early this year!

Happy Stitching!
