I have completed my stocking!!! Do I win a prize?

I know, that is just plain cruel.  I have way more time than anyone else.   I will say, I did add my name to the top of the stocking. The directions called for me to put my name on the back of one of the pine cones hanging from the top. I didn't like that, so changed it. Also, this is the first stocking kit that I have completed that had omissions in the directions and downright errors. I would not recommend this kit for a first time project. I still had a lot of fun putting it together.  So ... here is my completed stocking.

 
 Now I can go onto my next project. I have a couple of small pictures to do (about 4" x 4") that I want to put magnets on the back. I also have two tablecloths that I want to embroider. I bought two different pattern books for my tablecloths. 
 
I will be checking on the rest of you to see how your stockings are coming along.

LOOK!!! I'm almost finished! PLUS - Scarlett's stocking!

Here is my stocking as of today - Thursday, May 2.  I still need to add some more pine cones and the back to have it completed.


And here is how Miss Scarlett is doing.  Good job Scarlett!
