Alexandra's Stocking

I bought a stocking kit to make a similar stocking for Alexandra last year. I wasn't able to finish it before Alexandra's first Christmas - it was so much more labor intense than I initially thought (which means I am even more impressed with my own mother's ability to have done five such stockings)! I finished Alexandra's stocking last month, and hope that she will love it as much as I loved mine that my mother made me :) Here it is:

    The stocking is adorable! Don't feel bad about not getting it done for Alexandra's first Christmas - this will be Bailey's 3rd and I haven't finished hers yet... hopefully I'll make my deadline this year!!
