Christmas Stockings and gardening

This is what I have to show for sewing last week...........

  
My daughter asked me to make her 9 Christmas stockings for gifts  . We had fun picking out fabric for each of the stockings together  & alot of the fabric was 1/2 off .   Each stocking has its own theme for that person . The Raiders stocking to the left it not quite done.  I am going to pick up some red ribbon to make these Raider theme circles look like Christmas ornaments hanging on the front of the stocking.

Our weather has been in the 70's so I have been working in the yard a little bit.  I finished pruning all of my roses and still cleaning up the gardens  . 


My hubby spent 5 days stacking all of that wood we got from our neighbor's tree. I call it our  "  Great Wall of China "
