christmas stockings



They're brill - I especially like the tartan one.

Advent calendars and boxes are lovely too - but I don't have the patience for that kinda thing. I'm sure I'd cut my finger off if I tried that!

I've just been sewing some last minute stocking stuffer type gifts. A lavender sachet with dried lavender from the farm. A couple rubber band tailed mice with catnip from the garden, and having gotten bored with the usual mouse look, I'm now making a much more inappropriate catnip object for my brother's kitten.

Inappropriate for a kitten, or from a human perspective ?

ermm..... fairly inappropriate. We'll just consider it a fertility symbol for my relatively recently married brother.

The funny part will be when he receives a homemade gift, that I will swear is just my new design for a mouse They'll be the ones that are being inappropriate considering it to look like anything else

(don't worry, my mother is a sex ed. teacher, the whole family has a very progressive sense of humor)
