I habn't been sewing this weekend cuz my head is stubbed ub!

Not to mention the achy flu symptoms.  *le wah*

And so, though I planned to have a finished art quilt to show you today, I'm going to be posting a couple more of the stockings I've entered in the mini-peep boot contest that Lizzie House is having.

This one's my favourite - faux pony and sequins and beading, oh my!  It's not quilted like the first one was, but I still think it's totally cute.




And speaking of "totally" - I am TOTALLY addicted to making these little numbers.  I want to make 20 or so of them and do a whole mini tree of them next year.  BSP thinks they're great fun and agrees that we ought to have a mini-stocking tree.  (You'd only know how amazing that agreement is, if you knew we already have four Christmas trees which get put up every year.)



And then I made another quilted one, which I had to bead just cuz they're saucy that way.  :)

I have one more that I want to make for the contest (a shimmery baby blue number) and I have until the end of the day tommorrow to do so - however, I've been so sick I literally haven't been able to stand for more than five minutes and get dizzy and nauseous if I do so.  Not to mention, that if I say more than three words I start coughing up my lungs.  *le wah*



Off to the doctor tommorrow for me; and maybe if I can, another mini stocking for the contest.

Hope you're all doing much, MUCH better than I am (it took me two hours to make this little post!) and I look forward to talking to you all later in the week.

Cheers,

Kit

  1. Yep, I'm not sewing either due to a horrible cold. It's slowly starting to improve, but I don't think it would be nice to snuffle over quilts I'm making for other people. Grotty things, these colds, I haven't had one this bad in about ten years. Here's hoping we all improve fast! The stockings are stunning, and of *course* you had to bead them.

  6. Hi El, long time no see!!
    I'm sorry you're feeling sick too - I'm just back from the doctor and it turns out I have some plauge-like viral infection and not only am I not allowed to be around people (as well as not being able to talk!) I have to wear a mask when I am around people and take medication that knocks me unconscious.

    Ho ho ho!!!

    lol

  11. Thanks so much, Dan. The little blue and silver is growing on me too - I like it less because it was so fussy to make, but on the other hand, it is pretty... :)

    And thanks for stopping by!
