Have you checked your stockings lately?

You know how it is, they get rolled up, crushed together, put in a box, packed away, and otherwise neglected for 11 months out of the year.
 So I decided it was time for a wash and a rinse.
Then hung to dry by the fire.

Next they'll need a bit of darning.  Moths came to visit and overstayed their welcome.

The 2 that are wool were made by my Aunt Dana many years ago.  She attached a label, but no date.  The other 2 are acrylic and I've no idea who made those, as there is no label inside.

Just another reminder for all quilters to always add a label so we're not forgotten 11 months out of the year  . . . or otherwise.

Until then, keep stitchin' . . .

Lovely stockings. It is so nice that they are all similar but made at different times, by different people perhaps.
