Christmas Stocking Day- Half-Assed Holiday!

Regarding Christmas Stocking Day: again, I'm surprised with just how fulfilling making a sock can be. I took a bunch of photos as well, and I hope they comvey some of the fun and the buzz of activity (and sewing machines... we had three of them in operation today).

First, here are some photos of the supplies we had on hand to choose from.

 

Once our fabric selections were made, we headed into the Fisher Price House and commandeered the kitchen table for some serious sewing.





We took a bit of a break for a Christmas Movie screening: Elf, from 2003, with Bob Newhart as Papa Elf and Ed Asner as Santa! There were a few other actors in there too, I guess.

And I simply must show off my Christmas Sock...! From humble beginnings, strips of complimentary-coloured fabric were transformed one-stitch-at-a-time into a Technicolor Marvel I know refer to as my Fantastical Footwear. Are you prepared?!?!?



I'll wager you didn't expect something quite like that. And now Paul has to endure it hanging in his living room for weeks! I lowkey have a crush on it rn, ijs.

That's all for now. Thanks for reading, and enjoy your day...!
