First Christmas at our new place

The spread ...






This Christmas, I decided to make some personalised stockings for the kids. I had thought I could machine-sew the stockings but realised it didn't work. The slip-stitch has to be hand-sewn to join two pieces of felt together. I ended up spending most of my time on Xavy and Ash's as theirs were more intricate, or rather, complicated.
Here goes ...

Coco's ballet pump


Xavy's elf boot

Ash's elf boot

The elf boots' colours were personally picked by Xavy. I even let him pick the colours for Ash's to let him have a sense of ownership and decision-making power over his baby brother's stuff.
