Felt is my medium

I love to work in felt. Somehow it is so satisfying. In particular, felt has nearly no match (in my humble opinion) when it comes to making Christmas stockings.

I have made all of the stockings for my family (somehow my dog ended up with the biggest one) except my own.



My stocking was made for me by a friend of my mom's when I was just a baby.


I just finished Miss Tiny's stocking...finally...I have had part of it done for over a year.


See our stockings hung by the foosball table with care (a tradition in the Tabanou home).



Miss Z and I also worked on our annual gingerbread house this weekend. I use a kit because it would make me want to die a lot to try to make the pieces myself. This year we used the Trader Joe's kit and it was really cute!




Miss Tiny helped us by eating cheese puffs (notice the telltale cheese dust on the shirt and the bit of cheese puff drool on her chin).

The results...



I will not let Christmas make me crazy (my new mantra)
