Carolyn’s beautiful stocking reminds me of Christmas Eve at our house as a kid in Ohio. I remember it being quiet and peaceful. The lights would be out except for the Christmas tree lights. We hung ordinary socks and used the same holes in the mantle every year. My dad would always wrap safety pins to put in everyone’s stocking! A couple of years ago I went with my 2 sisters to see the house and the mantle had been stripped of paint, but the holes were still there! Merry Christmas everyone!

PS I just remembered the year I stepped on the star when we were decorating the tree! Oh, that was awful, but no damage was done, thank goodness.
Merry Christmas, Peggy! Thank you for all your teaching and inspiring posts over the last dreary year. It has helped this weaver stay afloat. Hoping for a Happy New Year!
Delightful, stocking and memories. Thank you for all you share with us throughout the year. Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to you Peggy, you have helped us all get through this awful year with you posts full of good advice and Ideas for the future. Roll on 2021 when we can use the ideas and go on to more weaving
How wonderful to hear from you. I use your towel a lot and think of you. Happy New Year. I’m thrilled you like my posts. I love doing them. They got me through the year, too.
Love,
Peggy
Merry Christmas! Hope your holiday is merry and bright!
I’m up late putting the finishing touch on a hand-knit sweater for Eric (ok, he’s getting the back for this holiday, I’ve discussed with him his impending New Years, Valentine’s Day, and Arbor Day gifts of other sweater parts.) Knitting a sweater takes a long time! Who knew?!
Merry Christmas Peggy! Thank you for all you do to encourage the weavers of the world!
God Bless you and yours.
Thank YOU for all your support, Marie.

Merry Christmas, I enjoy your blogs
I too grew up in Ohio. Some wonderful memories of Christmases there!
I remember having holes and then we had to use safety pins and put them on furniture. I don’t know what happened to those red flannel stockings which my grandmother had made. She embroidered our name on our stocking too. Sad but poignant memories.
All leading to our joyous Christmas this year – that we’ve been healthy since Thanksgiving
