Reveal
Chookyblue was my Christmas in July swap partner. She has gotten her package which went all the way to Australia. Here is a picture of what I made and sent to her. I chose to make a Christmas stocking which is done in wool and all the black dots are beads sewn on by hand. It was a fun swap and I could not hardly wait for July to get here. Thanks again to Stephanie and Linda for hosting this swap.
