{Homemade Stockings}

 Christmas is in a week!
I hate how fast this month seems to go by.
Especially since SSG has been on leave.
It makes me sad he will have to go back to work.
Such is life though!

If You didn't know I bought a sewing machine last November, (a year ago) with no idea how to use it.
I just told myself I was going to learn how to sew.
It is something I have always wanted to do.
With a little MUCH help from my friend Thais.
I can proudly say, yes I can sew.
Not like fancy dresses or anything. 
I am not that talented.
I can however make my very own homemade stockings.
 It is pretty nice that I have matching ones now.
REALLY nice that they are not dollar store crappy ones too.
Stockings are terribly expensive to me.
I used freezer paper stencils to put the names on.
Have you ever done it?
If not and want to learn I will be happy to post a tutorial on it.
It is really easy!
I cannot wait to fill these stockings!

Baby Gift

 As you probably already know I am not blessed with a girl.
As I am typing this right now 'Monster' is climbing all over me.
Oh the joy of boys.
So whenever I find out someone is having a girl I jump on the opportunity of making things.
I made these for a new mommy in our church.

 Baby shoes to keep little toes warm.
 I really like the pink flower fabric!!!
I made her three sets of shoes, bibs, and burp cloths.
