It only took me 3 years...

I am Done!!! I finished this last night. It is a counted cross stitch stocking kit that I began almost 3 years ago for my sweet baby girl, Mikell. She will be 3 next month. There were definitely long periods in between working on it but, it took up quite a chunk of my life. I really like how it turned out and it is my favorite one that I have made so far. (Yes, I am insane and have made 3 others. This is why I am only having one more kid.)
I have a felt and sequined stocking made by my Grandma Riddle that she made for me when I was a kid. My Grandma has been gone for many years and I love having it because it makes me think of her. This is why I decided to make these. I hope my children with cherish them, and yes, they are not allowed to touch them with their chocolaty Christmas candy hands!
