A Christmas Stock and the Rabbit
[ATTACH=CONFIG]600355[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]600354[/ATTACH]I have a new great nephew and I make personalized Christmas stockings for each of them. The story behind the rabbit. I made his dad an exact duplicate of this 30 years ago from the same pattern. He named it Old Joe and took it literally everywhere. It is now bruised and patched but still exists. I was very excited when I found out that the baby was a boy so that I could make him an Old Joe, Jr. I just hope he likes it as much as his dad did. Although you can't see the crystals on the stocking, they are there as well as one of young deer has a red crystal nose a la Rudolph. I used several buttons as well and the lettering and the heel are done in cork fabric. I made two stockings last year for my great-great nephews. The generations are overlapping now. Have a great holiday weekend. Oops, when I proofread it should say stocking but it won't let me change it now.
