Wow! Connie you are really going to town on that. It's going to be so pretty!
I couldn't even remember what Mark's stocking looked like. It's Blue! Yay! I liked Connie's blue a lot and now I get to work with it too.
When I first bought the stocking I left it on the end table and Neptune made it quite evident that she's mad I didn't buy her a stocking!
The bottom part was gone - she ate it! Well, I wasn't too upset; she left all the instructions, the felt and most important, those SEQUINS! LOL
Last night I decided to get out my stocking and sort the color in the natural light. Oh my! I have white, ecru, cream and tan - they all look alike!
Well, what I didn't realize is that Neptune also ate my cardboard for sorting my thread!
Tip #1 - Connie told me she keeps her needles separate on a little dish.
There are two needles in the kits - I label mine and stick them in the instructions:
On the other side I drew a heart and labeled it "beading".
Tip #3 - Sew with the Beading Needle
One thing I learned from doing my other stocking is it's easier to use the beading needle to applique on the felt pieces (not the embroidery) as it's sharper.

This is just not going to work! LOL I really laughed I thought this was so funny. I bet Miss Neptune is laughing too.
