I decided to get some creative juices flowing this Christmas since I have a little more free time than last year when I had a newborn. And I also got a shiny new sewing machine a while back that I'm really excited to use. So for my first project I decided to attempt stockings!
My friend Emily has an brand new embroidery sewing machine, so I called her up and asked if I could be her first "guinea pig" and try it out on my stockings. It took us 3 HOURS to embroider 3 names and the only damage done was 2 broken needles, and a couple of "rough drafts" on the fabric.
I thought they turned out pretty good!
And I'm so glad they're done in time for Christmas!
You're probably wondering what I'm going to do when I have more children. Well, I need to rush over to JoAnns where I bought the fabric and buy some more before they're gone. And I'm counting on Emily to never move away so I can use her again for my next ones!
